Gift Ideas for Toddlers
/I figured since I went full on Christmas yesterday that we might as well keep the train rolling!
I find a lot of great gift ideas from other bloggers so I thought I'd share what's on our wish lists this year. Maybe you can find some Black Friday deals!
We'll start with the toddler edition. Keep in mind that my kid needs absolutely none of this. Currently his favorite toys are an oven mitt and spray water bottle. Both of which he pilfered from the kitchen. Oh, and my Swiffer duster. Another hot item.
Play Kitchen and Cleaning
Last year we got Clark this KidKraft kitchen. It has been a hit. He really isn't into toys but he does play with this quite often. Probably because it appears to be an adult thing to do.
(Note: allow PLENTY of time to construct this kitchen. Nate is obviously very good at building and this still took him 3-4 hours. Also, I think I purchased this for around $75 during the Black Friday time period so keep an eye out for sales if it's on your list!)
Beings the kitchen is a hit, I added a few accessories to his list. I love the Wood Eats products. We gave him the coffee maker for his birthday. He's a pro at lattes now (if only they were real.....). He's also crazy into cleaning. He received the Melissa and Doug Let's Play House set last year as a gift and it's probably his most used toy. I figured I might get my water bottle back if he has the kit below.
Wood Eats Pizza, Wood Eats Toaster, Wood Eats Mixer, Melissa and Doug Ice Cream Set, Melissa and Doug Cleaning Set, KidKraft Chef Accessory Kit
Trucks and Blocks
Skid-steers, garbage trucks and fire trucks! Oh my! Trucks and building are a huge hit around these parts!
Garbage Truck, Melissa and Doug Emergency Vehicle Carrier, Melissa and Doug Construction Trucks, Melissa and Doug Vehicles Puzzle, Magna-Tiles, Blocks Set
Books
We read. A lot. These are a few titles that have been on my (I mean, Clark's) list for awhile. We check out Gotta Go, Buffalo from the library at least once a month so it may need to be added to our collection!
Gotta Go, Buffalo, Noisy Night, Triangle, Home, Lovely, Dinosaurs Love Underpants
Random Things
(How do you like that heading? I need another latte!)
These are random toys that I found that might entertain my kid for more than 30 seconds.
Hape Counting Stacker, Schleich North America Farm Animals, Doll Stroller, Boon Building Bath Pipes, Alpha-Bots, Trampoline
