Gift Ideas For Little Boys
I’ve always found it so much harder to shop for my son than it was my daughter! Maybe it’s because I’ve always been a girlie girl but I personally think that there are so many more fun gifts to buy for girls! If you’re having a hard time shopping for your little boy then hopefully this gift guide will help you! This blog post is full of ideas for little boys that is filled with toys that my son actually owns and loves! A lot of these are actually gender neutral toys that my daughter loves as well! If you’re looking for gifts for little girls make sure to check out my little girls gift guide too!
I always work so hard to find presents that will make Christmas morning exciting for the kids but also something they will still enjoy weeks, months and even years later! If you’re anything like me the amount of options of toys and things out there that can be purchased can feel so overwhelming! When I shop for something for my family I typically spend hours researching, reading reviews and trying to pick the best option. So here you can shop all my picks of what I actually bought my little boy! These are some of his favorite things and I would bet they will be your little boys too!
My four year old son LOVES the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, it’s basically his favorite thing in the entire world! So we have searched high and low to find the best Ninja Turtle toys and considering he plays with these every single day, I think we did pretty good!
Ninja Turtle Underwear- This might seem silly but I’m always looking for practical + fun gifts and this is kind of the perfect one! My son was so excited to open it and he likes to pick them out in the morning!
Talking Raphael Toy- This is one of my son’s favorite toys because he talks and makes noises! He also has the Leonardo one! He wants Donatello and Mikey for Christmas this year too!
Leonardo Pizza Motorcycle- He loves cars so when you make a ninja turtle motorcycle you know he is going to love it!
Pizza Van- This pizza van actually shoots out little pizzas and he thinks it’s so fun to play with! We go it for him for his 3rd birthday and it’s still one of his favorites.
Farting Squishy Raphael- I’m not sure what it is with little boys that makes them love farting noises but this toy is definitely a hit! It’s like a bath toy and the farting noise is pretty quiet so thankfully it doesn’t drive me insane! They also make a 4 pack with all of the Ninja Turtles.
Fuggler Donatello- He thinks these ugly ninja turtles are so funny! We got him this one for his fourth birthday and Raphael, Mikey and Leonardo are on his Christmas list for this year!
My 4 year old loves sensory Toys and these are a few of his favorites!
Castle Kinetic Sand Kit- This Kinetic Sand kit is perfect because it comes in an easy to store plastic box. My son loves to sit and build sand castles with it!
Magnetic Tiles Road- My kids all love playing with Magnetic tiles but my son especially loves it! We are getting him this road for Christmas this year so he can make roads up to his castles he builds! He also had this Magnetic Tile Set.
Ninja Turtle Goo JIT Zu- My son loves all of the squishy toys especially any of the Goo Jitsu’s! I got him this 4 pack for Christmas this year and I can’t wait to see his reaction!
Sonic Goo JIT Zu- He has this one and absolutely loves it! These toys are so fun because they are really stretchy and they are fun to sit and squeeze. It’s great for kids who sometimes need help regulating their emotions or are sensitive.
Biggie Book- My son LOVES the Elephant and Pig books and this book has 5 stories in one! He also has volume 2, volume 3, volume 4, and volume 5! We have gotten them for him as gifts and they are his favorite books to read! They are really funny and also great for first time readers. My first grade daughter will read them to him sometimes!
Sonic Water Bottle- As I mentioned earlier I love a good practical gift! The thermos water bottles are great because they are spill proof. He always thinks it’s so fun to get a new water bottle with his favorite characters on it!
Ninja Turtles really are my son’s favorite toys so here are more of his favorites!
Mutation Station Van- This toy is super cool because the tiny figures all come apart and you can make your own mutants with them! He likes to switch up their heads and bodies and then you can launch them from the truck.
TMNT Bad Guys- He loves the bad guys from the mutant mayhem movie because it gives his ninja turtles someone to fight! You can buy this 4 pack that comes with a lot of them and you can also buy them individually.
Michelangelo Stufie- He sleeps with all 4 of the ninja turtles every night in bed! These ones aren’t too big so it doesn’t take up too much room in your house!
Rocksteady Motorcycle- He loves playing with this toy to make him fight Leonardo on his motorcycle.
Ninja Turtle Blanket- Another great practical but fun gift! He sleeps with this blanket every night!
Little Tikes Interactive Suitcase - This was Lincoln’s Santa gift last year! His big sister asked for a princess pretend suitcase which was easy to find but a boy version was not!! He always wants everything his sister has so I knew we were gong to need one for him. It’s so cute to see the two of them pretending to go on vacation with their suitcases. This one is really cool because it is interactive and has some awesome learning resources.
Fire Truck- This little truck is perfect for indoor play or outside getting messy!
Melissa & Doug Sandwich Counter- this is perfect for pretend play and creativity!

Bubble Lawn Mower - We have had one of these for all of the kids when they were toddlers and it’s so funny to see them “mowing the lawn”
Kids' Scooter- These scooters are awesome for little kids who are learning and don’t know how to steer! We got it for Lincoln on his second birthday and weren’t sure how he would do with it but he did great right away!
Bubble Podz- These are the BEST for bubble baths! If your kids are anything like mine and tend to get reactions to skincare products then you will love these! They are perfect for sensitive skin but they also make the best bubbles I’ve ever seen! One pod will fill the bath with foamy bubbles!
Squirrel Game - This is my kids favorite board game! You fill your tree up with acorns and get to steal acorns from each other. It’s perfect for little kids!
Little Tikes Gas Pump - How cute is this to go along with a Cozy Cupe ?! This way your little one can fill up the gas tank before heading out!

Wooden Rattle Set- Perfect for younger boys!
Hot Wheels Bath Bomb - My kids love bath bombs and this one is so fun!
Explorer Set- This little set is so fun for boys to pretend to be explorers!
Pottery Barn Kids' Chair- We have these chairs for each of our kids personalized with their names on them. They love having their own chairs and will sit in them in the playroom while they play or watch TV. Sometimes they fall asleep in them and it’s so cute! I love that the covers are removable and machine washable because we have had lot’s of spills and accidents in them! they are also really lightweight so we often move them to the living room for family movie night.
Jellycat Monkey- These Jellycat stuffed animals are so soft and cute! They have so many cute animals but the monkey is one of Lincoln’s favorites.

Campfire Set- Ever since we went camping my kids love to pretend to have a “campout” and pretend to be by a campfire, so this one is perfect!
Ball Pit- Every kid loves a ball pit! We don’t personally have one because I don’t want to clean up balls all day long but if you’re looking for one, this is great!
Dinosaur Egg Bath Bomb- Lincoln got these for his birthday last year and he loved them so much I am getting him more for Christmas! They have the cutest little stretchy squishy dinosaurs inside and he carries them with him everywhere! I also loved the quality of the bath bomb, it didn’t irritate his skin the way so many others do!
Wooden Train Table- If your little boy loves trains like Lincoln then this table is perfect!
Cars Transporter- Lincoln got this last Christmas and it’s still one of his favorite toys! It is Mac from the movie cars and he transports all of the little cars! Lincoln loves the line all the cars up and then drive them down to other rooms of the house!
Cars Set- These are the little cars to go with it!
RC Truck- This monster truck is so fun and every boy is sure to love it!
Dinosaur Egg Bath Bomb- These are the same bath bombs listed above! He loved them so much I added them to 2 gift guides! They would also make great stocking stuffers!
Lego Duplo- Duplos are so great for learning to build and are perfect for kids who are too little for legos.
Wooden Firehouse- This is hands down Lincoln’s favorite toy!! It’s small enough that it won’t take over a room and it closes up to be even smaller! It comes with furniture and people and is the perfect little playlet for boys! Lincoln was always stealing his sisters dollhouses to play with his animals and superheroes and now that he has his own he has so much more fun! We keep it in his room and he will put his toys to bed in it at night and play with it again first thing in the morning. We got this for him for Christmas last year when he was 2 and his reaction on Christmas morning was PRICELESS! It was a surprise gift that we were crossing our fingers he would like and it was absolutely perfect!
Mix and Match Dinosaurs- This is another one of Lincoln’s favorite toys! You can build your own dinosaurs with the mix and match pieces! He has so much fun building creations and since they are magnetic they are really easy for little kids! This was a Christmas gift from last year ( when he was 2) and it’s still one of his favorites!
This gift guide isn’t boy specific so some of the items are a bit girlie but wanted to share it here because all of the others are perfect for both boys and girls!
Playhouse-If you’re little one loves to play house then this is perfect! All of our kids love to play in ours! Ours actually had to be painted black and white because they didn’t sell it that way and it was such a pain to do! I love that this one comes in such cute colors!
Bouncy House- Anyone else’s kids love to bounce?! I love that this bounce house is neutral colors so it’s not so overstimulating! Could be used indoors if you have enough space!
