Lego City






Ezra has really gotten into Legos. We'd like to help him focus on one set and he has been enjoying adding to the Lego City collection. Any of the items shown above are ones he doesn't have yet. Available almost everywhere! Prices range from about $12-30.

House Book

With all of the construction in our neighborhood, Ezra is always asking about this subject. I think he would love a book about it.

Truck and Train Kit

What could be better for the boys than a truck and train they they can assemble and decorate?

Aprons

Nick and I both have aprons to use when cooking. Now that Ezra likes to help in the kitchen it would be great if he had one. I know they are pretty easy to make, but my sewing machine is older than I am! Just in case anyone feel ambitious...

Carpet Sweeper

Ezra saw this carpet sweeper and asked for it. I think it would be fun for both kids.

Window Washing Kit

Like most kids his age, Ezra loves to help around the house. We can build on the Montessori style of having set kits and work by supplying him with this child sized kit for washing windows.

Take Apart Toys


A toy like this would be fun and a great way to work on fine motor co-ordination! On Amazon.

Catalogs

Ezra will browse toy catalogs for hours! If you see any in your travels, please pick them up. They are usually free.

Caterpillar

Was this toy specially designed for Ezra? Available here.

Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway



Ezra has a nice starter set of tracks and a few engines. He would love to add some cool track add ons or a few new trains or trucks. There's also a nice case that would be great for storage. Ezra especially loves the trucks and odd trains, like the steam roller.

Car Wooden Collection


NEW NOTE: Ezra does NOT want any of the "bad" cars. Ezra has a starter set of these Wood Collection cars and he really loves them. He already has Mater's garage, Lightnin McQueen, Mater, and a few of the cars from the first movie. He would love a few more cars. I think he would also love the Rainbow Bridge. These are available at Toys R Us and probably other places too.
