We loves these toys and we know you will too! Rainfall Rattle–This rattle responds to your babies every touch with a gentle melody of beads and a rainfall of color. This product is great for 1 year to preschool aged. Hammer Away!–Every child likes to take a whack at something. Why not let them whack away on the Hammer Away Boat that builds hand-eye coordination and experience with cause-and-effect concepts. Great toy for age 19 months to preschool. Measure Up! Cups –Every child likes to either stack or fill something. These colorful stacking cups are designed to make stacking easy for little hands. They also come in different sizes so you can stack them inside each other. Great for 12 months to Kindergarten. Shape-O Toy There is another reason to call your local Tupperware Representative other than replacing all your rose colored Tupperware you purchased in the 90′s! Mom’s and Babies alike love the Shape-O Toy. This classic rattle, shape-sorter, and counting toy is fun for babies and later helps toddlers match and identify shapes along with building coordination and dexterity. Oball Rhino Toys, Inc. has created their Oball to fit just about every age. This ball’s 4.5″ diameter size and finger holes makes it very easy for little fingers to grasp.

The ball pieces are the size of a tennis ball and perfect size for young kids! Zoobies We love these and have given them our Squeal of Approval!

A suggestion would be to find a local unfinished wood furniture shop that would have a chair at a reasonable price and paint it or stain it to fit the child’s room.

Tent and Tunnels One of our all time favorite play items is a Play Tent with a few tunnels. This provides hours of entertainment for all crawling+ children.
