Default Gifts for 3-year-olds

I am thinking ahead...

Last year, I had a number of 2-y/o birthday parties to go to. For each one, I did a variation on a theme that involved art supplies, books, bubbles, and stickers in a big outdoor bucket from Target. I want to do something similar this year (I'll have 9 3-y/o gifts from Jan to June). Any suggestions?

GAMES! 3 years old is when they start to play games, and it is so fun! Candyland, Chutes and Ladders, etc., and they are inexpensive. Watch for Toys R Us specials. I think that they had buy one get one free last year.

Enjoy!

Games are good. Craft supplies are still in. Cars, trucks and sports equipment is a hit too. Oh - and books. Magnet books are usually fun also. How about some sand toys (including a little dump truck or digger)? Another thought is a box/basket of musical instruments (egg shakers, rhythmn sticks, etc).
