What characters are your almost 3 year old boys into?

[FutureDis]

I'm trying to buy some things for our 4 day / 3 night land and sea package, which is Sep 2009. (Yes, I'm doing this early, but this is when the SALES for summer clothes are! LOL) Right now, my almost 2 year old son is really into Little Einsteins. He's not so much into Tigger and Pooh and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, but still watches them. What character stuff should I buy for next year do you think? Do you think he will still be into Little Einsteins? Too young to watch Cars yet, or is that something he might like by then? There are some really cute Pirates stuff, but he won't have seen the movie by then. What are you little boys into?

My little guy is all about the mouse himself, and Goofy. And Donald cracks him up, too. Basically, if they're not on MMCH, he's not interested.

Too young to watch Cars? Tell my son that! He started watching Cars when he was about 18-20 months (he's 2.5 now). He LOVES Cars! He has a lot of the matchbox Cars and knows them all by name. He uses Guido to fix the tires on the other cars and likes to make the tractor/cow tip over like in the movie. He also likes Finding Nemo and has seen Toy Story 1 & 2 a few times.

Right now, he is really into Little Einsteins - in fact he's into one episode - Carmine's Big Race. He "plays" trombone all the time just like Carmine's trombone horn. In fact, I play trombone and have one, but if I showed him I think his head would explode. I'd never get it back or be able to put it away!

The thing is, they change their mind so fast. DS all of a sudden had this Blue's Clues kick and everything was about Blue. Then he turned that off like a light switch and went over to Little Einsteins. Who knows what it will be next.

Little Einsteins is a safe bet, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse (or anything involving the Fab 5), maybe Handy Manny, as well as Cars and Nemo are all good characters for now and later.

Now I have the Blue's Clues song stuck in my head....

Thanks so much! Sounds like Cars would be ok and that he might still be into LE in a year. It's just so hard to know what they will be into a year in advance!

My son 2 1/2 likes them all! Some of his favorites:

Mickey Mouse (this is what clothes he asks to wear every day)
Donald Duck
Minnie
Little Einsteins (especially June)
Mike Wazowski (and the other Monsters Inc. guys kind of)
Cars (likes the "stuff" but not real into the movie)
Nemo
Beast
Apple (what he calls Snow White)
Cinderella
Stitch
JoJo
Handy Manny
Buzz

Honestly on any given day one of those is his favorite. He is a total Disney boy

DH is starting to show him spiderman and batman and he knows who they are. I keep telling DH to let me have him for the next few years because he will outgrow this stuff too soon. Then he can be into Batman and Spiderman

My son is 3 and has been into Cars since he was 1.5. Also Nemo, Buzz Lightyear and Woody, and the Mickey Mouse gang.

I let my my 2.5 watch all the movies (including POTC), and he likes them more than the TV shows. He started with Cars and Nemo before he was 2, and now asks to watch specific movies, everything from Ratatoullie to Toy Story to Aladdin to Alice in Wonderland (he loves Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum). He knows all the characters names from all the movies and has no specific fave.

He likes Mickey and the gang, and Handy Manny as well. Not so much into the LE characters though...except for Rocket and Big Jet.

my little boy is ADDICTED to Little Mermaid.

He has watched Nemo, but not all of it (won't sit for the whole thing, but does seem to like it and talks about "Nemo".) I might rent Cars and see what he thinks about it!! Thanks everyone!

Toy Story is a good one too....I prefer Toy Story 2 personally.

Haha....we prefer Toy Story 2 here also. My little guy is soon to be 3 and loves Cars, TS (Woody, Buzz, even Jessie) , Nemo and the Little Mermaid.

If anyone needs the Toy Story 2 movie, our Toys r us had it for $14.99 this week. I can't wait for 3 to come out! (but we have a few years!)

My 3 1/2 year olds love Cars, they would watch it every Saturday that daddy works if I would let them. They are also really into Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and Handy Manny right now. Our Sam's club has Manny dolls with toolboxes and I think both boys are going to get one for Christmas if I can keep it away from them for that long.

DS's favorite is Diego. His second favorite show is Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. But, I was at HK Disneyland and bought him a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse t-shirt and he won't wear it.
