It's my nephew's birthday soon.

What do you get for a 3-year old who loves cars? 

Somewhere in the £20ish area.

Yes, he has one.

But I'll keep it in mind. When's your birthday again?

dinky toys!

Pretty much any toy with wheels should do it :)

I guess you want to keep the spog alive so chunky plastic ones might be safer than dinkys!

I assume he already has a mat with streets laid out? If not make one! I used to love pushing dad's old dinkys* around one of these when I was little (up to about age 7/8 I believe)

(*Dinkys were all safe in their wooden box with the lead soldiers last time I checked - unfortunately all were well played with even before I got my grubbly little mitts on them so no retail value - they still rock though!)

A mad idea but...bring a couple of cardboard boxes, some felt pens, sellotape and scissors. Spent an afternoon making a cool car out of a cardboard box. The parents might think you're weird, but you and your nephew will probably have more fun!

Is he into Thomas the Tank Engine? I hear those toys are very popular.
