If you are looking for the best toys for toddlers, here are some of the best gifts and little toy ideas we have come up with that inspire young kids to play close attention and to spark their imagination.
Educational toys that spark imagination and creativity are our picks!
I also believe a good healthy balance is alright too!
We not only have wooden toys, open ended toys, but we also have those toys that light up and are pretty much the “one and done toys”.
These toys incorporate video game consoles and tablets which are filled with parental controls but incorporate some of my littles favorite characters such as Star Wars and Paw Patrol for learning with.
I love educational games that include some of the play modes that littles can work with for learning in a fun way.
Here are our top picks for educational apps and educational games we love that can be used on a tablet as well.
These are usually given from friends and family and let me tell they do get used as well, but..
NOT as much as the toys that spark imagination and creativity! 🙂

- water table
- wooden set

We love both and approve both ways.
