Magnadoodles !!! We have two mounted to a table (with Velcro) and we need to do a few more - they fight like crazy over whose turn it is.

Dress-up !!

Pouring stuff (a mix of pasta, dried beans, rice, and beads) with containers of all different shapes and sizes. We lay out a big sheet - and they could go for hours.

Also, they love sit-and-spins, but ours have managed to "disappear" lately. The number of fights & tattling they cause was so not worth it.

Trains
Dolls & baby 'daycare' set-up
They love free craft day - just some materials and their imagination, no instructions... some better than others without instructions

Saving up and searching Craigslist for those magna tiles... they looks awesome!

My preschoolers LOVE the Wonderworld wooden vehicles. LOVE them. They get played with daily by both genders.

They also love the animal Toobs you can get (collections of small animals that are somehow related to each other).

While they enjoy playing with other toys, these are the most played with.

These are all toys that I can't ever put away or rotate, they always have to be out otherwise if I put them away the kids will ask everyday for them.
