Ok, so with major spring fever and anticipation of warm weather coming where we can play outside, what are some outdoor toys that you have seen or had for your toddlers?  Any must haves?

Here's some I've been eyeing:
Definitely a Radio Flyer wagon
Radio Flyer Pathfinder Wagon+ canopy

A tunnel, and maybe even the tents it connects to:
Wiggle TunnelSun Smarties Peek 'n Play Ball Pit

This is really cool, really $$$ but cool (maybe for his birthday gift, cause he would get several years play out of this):
Naturally Playful Clubhouse Climber
This is also cool and a bit more reasonable but probably wouldn't grow with him as much:
Woodland Climber
LOVE this pool!!!!  Perfect to host swim playdates!
Splash n Play Colossal Pool
Oh, and I have a really cool water table that we got Zav last year for his birthday and it was a hit last summer and I'm certain he'll still enjoy it this year.

So, post your favs.  Or if you've had any of these and have reviews.

Hayden is 100% in to basketball, we already have 2 goals in the house.  He asked for 2 for his b-day and I couldn't figure out why and then he showed me a game on ESPN and said "see Momma, 2 Baketball Gos!"  It was so cute, so he'll need a outdoor basketball goal, which we purchased this weekend. 
We have this w/ the canopy
Radio Flyer Pathfinder Wagon
He loves it, we haven't used the canopy much but it's nice to have.  The one we have has the two seats like this one and has cup holders for the lil' ones and for the adults, which is nice for a walk or trip to the zoo!

We bought this last year, we searched and searched for one that was "fun" was also didn't take up the entire fenced in back yard and this one was an amazing price for what it is:
Adventure Playsets Conqueror Swing Set

Othen then that we'll have mostly plastic bats, balls, etc. since that's all my child is interested in.  Hayden loves basketball, football, baseball, drag racing, & motorcycles, his Daddy is so proud! aww

Oh, and he got these things for Christmas so they'll definetly be used outside this spring/summer!!

He had this last summer, and LOVED it!

It's from Target. I honestly cannot remember the age range on it. Hayden got it last year, early spring. So he was probably 15 months when he started riding it. He got the hang of it instantly but he still isn't good at steering. He thinks it's fine to run into the fence! :) It keeps Mommy and Daddy busy but the look on his face when he was riding it made it all worth it! It was worth every penny.

Ditto! My son loves his! But now that he got a bike he's too lazy to pedal for a long time. ugh!

Oh, I forgot one other thing we'll be playing with this year. Hayden got this for Christmas from him Mamaw so it'll be fun "learning" to ride this summer.

i highly recommend the radio flyer wagon - we love ours!  our kids love to ride in it outside and inside they love to put toys in it and pull it around the house (though it's huge - we got the metal one vs. the plastic one).  the tunnel thing you posted also looks really cute and fun.  i wish we had a yard, but we will be in a high rise for the next two yrs at least. :(

The tents and tubes are great...but I tend to recommend them more for indoor play...the plastic doesn't breathe well and really traps the heat.
