Low-stimulation but developmental musts! Only adding things he actually played/plays with and we still use today!
GREAT affordable gift idea. Toddlers legs were a little too short for this at first, but was a hit around 13 months!

HUGE win. He still loves this so much and it can eventually become their first trike!
