Clovercat 12-Pack Reusable Water Balloons, Latex-Free Silicone, Multiple Color
The most expensive item on the list but it's worth it. When my toddler was 1 he loved playing with it without the legs on. Now that's he's almost 3 and he loves it with the legs on because it is the perfect height. We've put in on the back porch or i...

This chalk has a plastic holder so your toddler's hands don't get messy. I really love them! The best part is you can resuse them with new chalk once the original chalk is all gone.
