To make holiday shopping easy Eli’s Lids has compiled a Gift Guide of the best for Lil’ Boys! Separated by age – 1-year-olds, 2-year-olds, 3-year-olds & 4-year-olds – and filled with tried and true classics alongside unique finds, you’re sure to find the perfect giftie for the lil’ guys in your life!
Toys:
You all know pirates are hot ticket items around here. Eli asked for a pirate ship that we can “sail The 7 Seas” in… but since we didn’t win the million dollar raffle we had to think smaller. We are huge fans of playmobile. They have every play world a little boy can dream up – see for yourself! Warning: There are some REALLY tiny pieces and the rule at our house is, “If it’s left out it might get vacuumed up!”
And Lego… lots of em’. We got this bucket at Sam’s Club but if you don’t have a membership you can find them at Walmart too!
(This is exactly what we are getting Eli this year!)
Clothes:
Old Navy is running some awesome sales right now!! Loads of boys shirts for $5. Check out the Old Navy sale page. And if you love matching (like I do), you can usually find stuff in all sizes!
I got this and this, sized to fit both my boys…
Book:
(you should already have all the Dr Seuss books)
Now that your lil’ guy is getting older it’s time for more “wordy” books. We are digging the Berenstain Bears. The books are a great price and there are SO MANY BOOKS you can find a topic on just about anything.
From everyday family issues…
…to more serious topics like…
Movie:
Um… yeah. Toy Story 3. That’s it.
(Eli and Cora Jane’s first real movie experience. Though we’ve had a few more since hearing about the UltraStar Cinemas Kidtoons)
TV Show:
You have to check out Shaun the Sheep. It’s awesome. If you’re partial to Claymation and British humor (like me) you will like this show as much as your kiddos! Shaun the Sheep makes Eli laugh out loud. (My favorite episode is the hiccup one)
Games:
UNO Moo is the perfect game for preschoolers. The game is played just like traditional UNO except with animals instead of numbers. I love that everything fits nicely in the barn carrying case (don’t you just love toys that do that??). Cora Jane picked out for Eli for Christmas. I can’t wait to play it with them.
Stephanie says
Berenstain Bears! Those were some of my fave books growing up…especially Messy Room. Gary & I were cleaning out the garage a couple weeks back & I found a stack of my favorite books that I kept from childhood. Score! Can’t wait to read them to my kids when the time comes.

Are we thinking soon?? Because you and Gary would be awesome parents 🙂
