Are there any backyard toys that your DCs especially like? We have a little Step 2 slide set, and a sand/water table. But I feel like going to town! What else can I get my little bits? The are 21 months. We have trees, flat space, and then a big hill (uphill). TIA!

Do you have a Cozy Coupe or somewhere to use it? That's my ds2's favorite.

My kids all love to swing. The Cozy Coupe is a big hit as well. And the Step 2 Rollercoaster gets a lot of use.

Those really big balls they sell at Target! My DD loves playing with those in the back yard. Really, any kind of ball - soccer ball, squishy ball, a ball with glitter inside, etc...

She also likes her bubble mower, and mows the lawn with daddy. One thing she loved doing when she was 2.5 y.o. or so, was to "wash" her car (cozy convertible car) in the back yard. I think she'd still like doing that now, at 4.

Oooh, I forgot about the cozy coupe. Does it work on grass?

And I just was at a playdate with the roller coaster. That thing was so cool! That's definitely on my list. I would have LOVED that when I was a kid.

Balls are on the list, we have to get bigger ones, the dogs flattened the last batch. :irked:

My kids love their Teeter Twirl...I always thought it would be a great toy for twins. DS got it for his 3rd birthday, but was able to play on his cousin's the summer before. http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2991777&CAWELAID=153086858
Other than that they love bubbles, their play house, and sprinklers are a big hit in the summer as well.

We have the Step 2 Extreme Roller Coaster and my 6 yo and 20 mos. old both like it. They were taking turns yesterday...the little one squealed everytime he went down!
