I’m a little out of whack with boys’ toys.
Perhaps I’m just a little caught up with the transition between toys for 24+ months and little infant toys.
It takes a little acclimatization, really.
In the past three years I have bought toys I can count on one hand for Levi and Ayla.
Michele is responsible for about 30% of all the toys and home and the rest come from generous friends and family.
To say I’m completely out of touch with kids’ toys isn’t an understatement, as I don’t believe in spending money on unnecessary toys.
After all, I grew up in a relatively poor family and normal kids around my age in the early-80s had little creature comforts and toys they could call their own.
I’d much rather put the $30 into the children’s high interest savings account than spend it on a fad which Levi and/or Ayla would lose interest with within a week.
But back to Levi’s cars.
He received this over the weekend for his third birthday.
Seriously, why would a little boy need 20 cars?
That’s a lot of cars.
20 cars. Goodness me.
He has about 57 cars now, including the 35-odd cars he already currently possesses in his ‘garage’.
….

So many great cars there! We have at least a hundred! We get out the race track once or twice a week and race them! Have fun!
