Between Mikka and I we have four kids. All three of mine were toddlers at one point and my niece is a toddler, so we are pretty much experts on what toddlers like to play with! That’s why we’ve put together this gift guide full of gifts for toddlers. The last thing you want to do is spend a lot of money on something your kid plays with once and then forgets. Also, you do not want to over buy. Toddlers do not need much, but if you over buy you will find that their stuff quickly overtakes the whole house.

Cruise and Groove Ballapalooza is a great grow-with-me toy. Toddlers can can drop balls in the top and watch them zoom down the ramps. Now I don’t know why toddlers like to do this over and over and over, but they just do.
Besides all of the great activities your toddler can enjoy, it’s great for babies too. They can sit and play with it and there’s a gate they can crawl through.
