Oh, wooden swords! Legos are on the list. They are not quite old enough for the Narnia books, sketchpad, or journal yet. Last year was the year of finger paints and easels. And, of course, books are a staple every year. The oldest one is learning to read now.

Lego. Wooden swords (well made ones, I will hunt the name of a great site my son gets them from ). A bag of cookie ingredients and a voucher for two hours of your time to make them with them (or bread). The Narnia books. Good sketchpad and drawing pencils. A spiffy leather bound journal. Ho hum, much more fun thinking of little kid presents than weighing the demands of college aged ones…

You are right about the size. I suppose Rhode Island would be a choking hazard

Also, just how comfortable should a parent or grandparent be purchasing a puzzle of the U.S. that contains only 45 pieces??

To be fair, some of those states in the NE are very tiny. RI and Conn. could easily be one piece, as could Vermont & NH. Plus, California and Arizona are both really part of Mexico these days anyhow. And I remain firmly convinced that North Dakota isn’t really ours, but a piece of Canada that they’re trying to convince us is ours – after all, they’re got all the forzen tundra they can possibly need.

Also, with the way mathematics is taught these days, how many kids (or even younger parents) can count as high as 50?
