Toy Ideas

[WigWag Workshop]

Good Day Folks!

 

Now that the Grandkid, is living close by, Pappy needs some idea's and even some links for some toys I can build for him. He just turned 3 years old, so the projects does not have to include, just scroll sawing.

 

 

Thank You in Advance for your comments and suggestions,

As you look at the suggested links above I have always found small easy to cut cars, trucks etc out of 2x4's is a hit for boys and girls. You will find other things they will love. I think what ever Pappy makes they will be happy.

Yep, MrsN beat me to it.  I built these for my Grandson, when he was three.  The stake truck is a Wood Magazine plan and the little pickup I just did free hand.

I love toys and MRSN is right it's a great forum for toys I use it a lot and buy plans.

Bandaid man brought up a good point with 2x4 cars and trucks. Simple car and truck shapes with wheels make excellent toys that are indestructible. Sandbox, dirt pile, mud hole, kiddy pool...they go everywhere.

I have made and sold a lot of simple toys for toddlers. Poplar works well, as does pine. I have no plans I just "dreamed them up." Here are some of them:
