Let's talk all about TODDLER TOYS! Sometimes with toddlers it can feel like interest in a particular toy is so fleeting and it's hard to know what toys will actually hold their interest long-term. In this video, I'm sharing my 14 top toys for toddlers based on what's actually most-used by the 1.5 and 2.5 year old in our home! The best part is that these toys are long lasting and will grow with your kids throughout the rest of their childhood as well! 👏🏻
Are there any toddler toys your kids love that weren't mentioned here? Share them in the comments below!

    My 17 mo old son loves his wagon! I love that I can use it for toy storage too. I was going to wait until 2 to get my son magnitiles but I guess I'll get them sooner! And Sarah's silks. My son also loves balls. I was a little surprised tonies or yoto player wasn't on the list but I plan to get for my son's 2nd bday 😊

    Thank you for all these great ideas, I am a first time mom and my baby is currently 2 months and can’t wait to introduce her to these type of toys as she gets older and even now introduce her to some items. I am also a first grade teacher and a lot of the stuff you talk about I see it as important as part of a child’s development. In my classroom I didn’t have a kitchen but I did buy kitchen food and a register and couldn’t believe how much my students loved that and would play with it. The sorting and tiles/blocks are also great and saw most my students also loved it and use their imagination. 😄

    as a music therapist I approve of the music set you purchased. There are so many obnoxious kids musical instruments out there be it the light up electronic ones(I despise these) And just plastic or cheaply made ones and xylophones that aren't even tuned correctly. The ones you go look sturdy and functional👏👏👏👏

    Loved seeing all of the toy options you have for your kiddos, Beth! I would love to know how you handle gifting from family & friends while keeping your toy selection minimal and fitting within the categories that are important to you. I feel that many people want to gift the big, flashy toys that don’t leave much room for imaginative play. Do you have this conversation before birthdays and ask for no gifts? Something I would love for you to expand on if you have an opportunity 🙂

    How do you handle getting "unwanted" toys from family? I'm blessed that my kids have loving grandparents and aunts and uncles but they buy a lot of battery operated light up stuff that I feel guilty getting rid of.

    Love this list! This may be a separate category but don't forget plenty of books!! My baby has always loved flipping through her books and pointing at pictures:) I almost always buy them second hand, fits our budget better. And I just want to add...maybe I'm the only one who gets desperate when the baby/toddler is at my feet when I need to get something done in the kitchen...but don't underestimate how well non-breakable dishes, wooden spoons, et cetera can be a good distraction when you're in a bind 😅

    THANK YOU for saying they only need 12 toys! I love that you acknowledge that as a mom. I always feel so in shock at how many toys moms have. I am glad you rotate things too. I never had many toys for my kids at all, and they were able to be creative because of it, especially my second child who is very artsy-fartsy, though the first one is too but doesn't apply them. I only have about 7 toys for my 9 month old and people don't get it, but he has favorites he'll play with for a while. I love that you talked about sourcing and avoiding the dollar store. That's really good. People thought I was crazy when I said such things 17 years ago with my oldest! Like, "What? Sourcing? What's that." I am glad it is a more known term now. I'm not a fan of the boxes you get every month. We did a box when my oldest two were about 6 and 8, which as a minimalist family did not work out too well, so we cancelled after two boxes. They would play with maybe one item in the box, so I found it better to choose a toy they'd play with instead of getting a subscription box, but I understand you are getting a commission and I hope you receive them. It must be nice to have a little girl who wants to have a baby doll. I had a baby doll (named "Baby Doll" even) as a little girl I brought everywhere with me until I was 4. It was my only toy until then! Wooden toys and play-doh is my favorite!! Thanks for this video. It was great. -JusticePirate

    P.S. My kids loved building blocks. They transitioned to LEGOs which they would play with for hours and hours and needed no other toys. Thankfully that is the only toy of theirs we kept so we can use it for my baby when he grows older.

    I’ve learned it’s not worth the stress and constant conversations so better to just accept the gifts graciously and then rehome what your child isn’t interested in. I really hate when people waste their money, but I have provided a current wishlist for every holiday and it’s rarely used unfortunately. There are just too many toys to keep them all regardless.
