15
items My busy toddler girl is constantly on the move and full of energy! Here's what keeps her occupied these days.
My daughter LOVES to run in and out of this tent's curtain-style doors. The cute striped exterior may not look gigantic, but the tent can cozily fit her and a parent for a fun read-aloud hideaway.
Ikea Circus Tent
This tunnel is great for games of peek-a-boo and crawling practice! It compresses quickly for easy and smooth storage.
Lovevery Crawl Tunnel
This tea set plays cute songs and encourages counting, color identification, and saying please/thank you. The best part? The “pouring” sound it makes when you tip the tea pot to the side. She's obsessed!
Sweet Manners Tea Set
The perfect toy for any kiddo who loves to build or say “roar”!
Hape Dinosaur Railway
Michael's has tons of cute themed sensory kinetic sand kits, from this construction one to mermaids to ice cream! The best part is that when play is done, you can just box it up easily for mess-free cleanup.
Creativity for Kids® Construction Zone Sensory Bin - Michaels
My girl requests “tutu” all the time! I love ones with shorts underneath so she can wear it out and to the playground.
Tutu Shorts
Scarves of any kind are great for creative play. My daughter makes swaddles and beds out of these for her stuffed animals, and it can be an amazing dress-up accessory too!
Sarah's Silks Playsilks
This shape catcher is great for fine motor skills and challenges my daugher to “rescue” the shapes from their stretchy cage!
InnyBin by Fat Brain Toys
Another favorite from Fat Brain toys, this board can be switched out/customized to keep things fresh and is a great go-to toy for restaurants and travel.
PlayTab - Modular, Sensory Activity Board
Great exercise for kids who are not ready for a balance bike just yet! It can work indoors or outdoors, and after several months of indoor use, it hasn't damaged our hardwood yet :)
Dino Dash Foot-to-Floor Ride-On™
This easel is amazing for painting, drawing, chalk drawing and whiteboard marker practice! My favorite part is that it comes with spill-proof paint cups and wet-erase chalk that is dust-free.
Hape Wooden Kid's Art Easel
This wooden cleaning set is great for kids who want to do everything you do - including household chores! My daughter gets excited when I start cleaning because she knows it's time to grab her little broom and dustpan.
Melissa & Doug Cleaning Set
So fun and can be reused over and over again. My favorite part of these is that they are mess-free.
Water Wow Books
These books are not only classics, the clever rhyming scheme makes me not mind reading them over and over and over again.
Sandra Boynton's Greatest Hits
My daughter loves to channel Fancy Nancy with these heart-shaped shades!
