In no special order of importance (and this is hard, because of the wide age/gender range in my family!)
1. wooden swords/shields
2. stuffed bunnies (my 3yo has a whole bunny family, with long stories to go with them, about all their adventures)
3. Brio trains/wooden blocks (usually played with together)
4. lego
5. paper/art supplies
Those are our favorites under the heading of "actual toys." Things that really get lots of use in our house include sticks, cardboard boxes, my shoes, my pots and pans, my kitchen implements, especially tongs, flashlights, blankets and sheets, all furniture, my scarves (even though we have a huge box of dressups that I probably should have included in my favorites list), my shoes, anything belonging to another person and not intended for the use to which the person playing with it puts it . . .

My house is mostly girls so in no particular order:
1.Dollhouse with Littlest Petshop animals
2. American girls dolls and clothes, followed with tea parties and pretend food ( for the dolls)
3. Legos, Playmobil, Lincoln Logs
4. Dress ups for both ( swords, knights, and princesses, and saints)
5. tape.. tape, tape.. cardboard, posterboard, scissors, ( craft anything)
In fact, I think Santa will be bringing a roll of tape to my ds this year. He comes up with sooo much to make!!
Outside we like the trampoline and bikes and scooters and bubbles and chalk.

5. Did I mention Legos?
We have a whole bedroom devoted to legos -- closet and all. We have wooden trains and train track, one large bucket of K'Nex, a grocery cart of play food, puzzles, board games,.. and that's about it, other than dress up fabric, swords, shields, and craft supplies.
