Christmas and birthday ideas

My wee boy is 3 in December, and has a 1 year old brother and they literally have everything. What am I supposed to buy them? We don't do any sort of tablets / devices or Tonie boxes in our home. We read stories every night. So need actual toys that a 1 year old and 3 year old boy would like.
