I saw the Matchbox tri-level garage in the TRU toy catalog and thought DS would like it. He saw it and definitely seemed interested. I would post it here, but the TRU has no image, so it wouldn't be very helpful.
Anyway, TRU recommends it for ages 3-5. I personally consider 3 barely old enough for Matchbox. Is this too babyish for a 6.5-year-old boy? If he ever had a playdate, would he get teased? I know he would like it; I'm concerned about social issues, which are a problem for him anyway.
I also know his almost-3-year-old sister would like it, so I know it will get used. But I want it to be a present for him; he has lots of Matchbox and Hot Wheels cars.
