Definitely +1 Amongst other (more restrained) gifts from me, my 3 year old niece got a very noisy keyboard and a potentially very messy painting kit at Christmas. My sister's face dropped like a stone (payback for when we were kids)!!

So given I'm leaving the country for a while, something loud and/or messy is recommended?! I was once in line to be the kids uncle, so I guess that fits.

You could go surreal and buy him a sextant, seven thousand drawing pins, two 8 kg blocks of Armenian blue cheese and a leather-bound Braille copy of À la Recherche du Temps Perdu.
