When shopping for my kids, I love trying to get gifts from several categories! Here are some of our tried-and-true toys that my kids have loved.

When you are done, Check out last year’s gift guide HERE!

1. Lovevery Play Kits | This is the best age for these play kits! Did you know that you can change the age of your child on the website to get the exact kit you want. Then just cancel your subscription! You won’t find toys like these anywhere else. We loved them for my 1 year olds!


2. DIMPL (USA, CAN) | Little fingers can’t resist and ours is still going strong after 3 years. Great for on the go and perfect for sensory exploration.


3. NUMBERS PEG PUZZLE (USA, CAN) | Both of my kids have loved these peg puzzles from Melissa and Doug. It was a great way for us to learn and practice numbers!


4. WEE BABY STELLA (USA, CAN) | This makes a perfect first doll! So soft and cuddly as well as the perfect size for little hands. Comes with a magnetic pacifier and other accesories!


5. WHIRLY SQUIGZ (USA, CAN) | 100% high-quality silicone that's colorful, pleasant to touch, and safe for teething. Stick them to any smooth, flat, non-porous surface - like a bathtub wall, a tabletop, or a window - give them a spin, and... WHOOSH!


6. WARMIES MICROWAVABLE PLUSHIE (USA, CAN) | We warm these in the microwave first thing in the morning and at night before bed for our kids. They ask for them! You can also chill them as well! These are scented with real, fresh lavender.


7. SCHOOLYARD TUMBLE (USA, CAN) | Roll, stack, and grasp 4 double-sided wooden GO Tots friends and make them tumble, twirl, rock and swing on the wooden double-sided playground and classroom schoolyard.


8. BATH TOY (USA, CAN)| This water wheel is so much fun at bath time! For 18 months plus, so make sure you child is ready for smaller pieces. (or put them away) Pour the water over the wheel to make it spin!


9. POKE-A-DOT BOOKS (USA, CAN) | We love these interactive books with fun buttons to POP! Get the whole set to talk about first words, colors and shapes.


10. PENGUIN BATH SLIDE (USA, CAN) | We love using this slide in the bathtub! My kids especially love putting their hot wheels down it. Great to stick to windows too!


11. MIX & MATCH MAGNETIC ANIMALS (USA, CAN) | These large, soft touch animals easily attach to the bars to create lots of fun combinations.


12. SNAIL SHAPE SORTER & PULL TOY (USA, CAN) | This was both of my kid’s 1st shape sorter and I can’t recommend it enough! The sound it makes when it’s pulled along is so fun. Will be used for years!


14. BATH FERRY BOAT (USA, CAN) | I love Green Toys for little ones since they come apart for easy cleaning and can even go into the dishwasher! They last us for years!

15. SPIN AGAIN (USA, CAN) | I would consider this one of my top toys for 1 year olds. Works on so many skills and is just a super fun and unique toy!


16. YBIKE RIDE ON & WALKING BUDDY (USA, CAN) | For riding, pushing, sitting & supported walking. I love this design since it has multi-directional wheel that don’t mark your floors!



17. PIKLER TRIANGE WITH DOUBLE SIDED RAMP (Use code “PLAYROOMINSPO15”)| This foldable playground will last for years! Not only great for climbing, but making forts, bridges, sliding and more! I love the re-sale value on these as well!


18. ROLLABLES OCEAN SLIDE (USA, CAN) | Drop the adorable characters into the funnel and watch them tumble down the wavy slide and out the whale’s mouth.


18. ROLL & RIDE BUS (USA, CAN) | Roll, stack, and grasp 3 double-sided wooden GO Tots friends and make them spin and bounce in the colorful wooden bus; press the release button and GO Tots roll out the back.
