My sweet Walker will be 3 next week – so in true birthday fashion I have gift guides coming at you!  I am always on a mission to find unique items for my kids – and with 2 boys and 2 girls that seems to be getting trickier and trickier, but I think I managed to find the best gifts for 3 year old boy.

Best gifts for 3 year old Boy

Walker plays with a bit of everything, and with 2 older siblings it has been a bit tricky to find him things that he doesn’t already have.  I was on a quest for both unique, but also useful in terms of some of the items!

My Rule of Thumb on The Best Gifts 

When I am creating these gift guides I always try to incorporate a bit of the same items.  Always a book or two, some inside toys, some outside toys, sometimes a bath toy, and some shoes or clothes.

 I tend to think if you get your child a few items for different areas and places your home will feel less cluttered and they will be able to have fun at so many different spaces.  

In this gift guide you will see everything from shoes to pool items so plenty to keep them busy!

Hopefully this gave you ideas you have never thought of for the three year old in your life.  So many of these items are things we already own and love – but I am also going to link to a couple of other gift guides that have other great items.

I tend to think many gift options are great for multiple ages, so nearly all the items on my 2 year old boy guide and 5 year old boy guides will still be awesome options.
