frick you, man. I have an aunt who buys these kinds of headache machines in every gift-giving scenario.

OP - My two year old won't touch a toy unless my four year old is into it. So he's getting super heros, stuff from the Cars movie series, legos, a remote control car, and some other big stuff that you probably won't want to buy for your niece/nephew.

Cardboard boxes are legit. Stack those up and take turns running through the wall of boxes.

Those things actually hold up pretty well.

My 2 and 3 year old love the easel thing where they can practice letters and shapes and stuff. They spend hours on it and it is educational.

Also, the 2 year old loves anything the 3 year old does so anything 3 and up works. Get them some Melissa and Doug tracks and trains and you will be set. That stuff will last for years too.

They do. Gave the now 5 years the blocks when he was 2. Still plays with them and now the 2 year old is playing with them also. No dents no nothing wrong with the blocks and they have a set with some other shapes in them.

2 year old girls tend to like anything Disney princess related especially the princess costumes.

Our 2 year old nephews have been and are still fascinated with anything related the Cars movies.

OP, ask the parents what the kids like and decide how much you're going to spend. It's good to avoid duplication of things they already have.

I do books for everyone's kids.

I came to a quick realization after having a kid of my own that toys take up way too much space.

Another vote for the 4-wheeler thing. My 2-y/o is getting that.

Experience gifts are good from the parents' perspective. Tickets (or membership if you're spending that much) to a zoo, children's museum, etc.

If they like getting mail, a Highlights subscription will last all year.

Mine actually loves coins, so my parents are putting money in her college fund and probably giving her some coins to open and put in her bank at home.

Depends on what kind of things the kid likes. My older son wanted ride-on toys around that age so that's the kind of stuff we got him. My youngest is 2 now and says he wants a dump truck full of chocolate for Christmas.
