I have loads of ideas for DS1 who is six (legos and beyblades) but for DS2 I got nothing. He really isn't that into legos. He likes fire trucks, trucks, and sports stuff. Any ideas?
TIA

Costco has an awesome firehouse wood toy (like a dollhouse, but it's a fire house). It looked awesome. Sorry cannot remember brand or price, but we all thought it was cool. I'll see if I see it online...

Cannot figure out which one it was...maybe it's by Kidkraft but I can't find it on their site.

Thanks! I will check it out. I am wondering if the Darda car set would be a good idea?

Not necessarily right what you mentioned his interests are, but the gifts I anticipate my 4.5-year-old DS being most excited about are walkie-talkies, a guitar (Mills Fleet has for under $10), and maybe binoculars if I get them.

What about the Imaginext fire station?

KidKraft also has

Not sure if these would be too similar to the Imaginext Fire Station...

How about a Rody Max? Someone on here bought one last year and gave rave reviews about it.

There are other sets/themes as well and they are all compatible.
