Recommend Your LO's Favourite Toys?

MisN · July 2012

DD is 14 months and her toys are getting a little stale. Her favourites are My Pal Violet and books. We are going on vacation (5 hour car ride) to a not entirely child proofed cottage so I am going to buy some new toys to keep her busy in the car and at the cottage. I was thinking about the Leap Frog picnic basket? and maybe this for the car:

Any experience with these? What toys keep your LOs entertained the most?

DS tends to get bored with electronic toys like that-

He's really into Little People stuff right now. He has a fire station that he plays with all the time, he likes those chunky legos to build a "towah!" with (towers lol)

He also has something like this that he is obsessed with lately

we are also practicing "throwing and kicking" balls a lot.

In desperation, I give him a mixing bowl and some plastic cooking spoons and let him have at it on the floor.

She loves her bucket of small plastic animals. They can entertain her for a long time. She also likes lift the flap books, balls, baby dolls (she really likes feeding them her pretend food), playdough, and bristle blocks.

Kendall's likes the Playskool Popper toy and loves her picnic basket. The opening and closing feature on it keeps her entertained and shes getting very good at putting the fruit in the correct holes.

We have a Leap Frog Laptop that we bring in the car that will keep DS occupied for a while. He also LOVES to color! I keep some crayons and a coloring book/paper with us all the time. I keep a few toddler music CDs in the car with songs that he likes and that works too. Oh...and one more that's super easy to travel with....he loves these plastic stacking cups that we have.

When my Lo who is 14 months gets bored I go to the recycle bin. Magazines, cereal boxes, coffee tins, yogurt cups etc. will occupy him for hours. Obviously I clean them out and make sure there are no sharp edges but it is cheap and keeps him more entertained than many toys.

Play doh and coloring are daily activities for us.

Current favorites at our house include balls of all shapes and sizes, blocks (especially mega blocks and bristle blocks), magnadoodles, Little People, and lift-the-flap books.

DS likes putting objects into a bucket or a hole or whatever. I just got this yesterday, and it was a HUGE hit.

DD just turned 1. She just got a fisher price shopping basket she loves to push around and put her toys in.

Not car friendly at all but DD LOVES this!

We have collected many of the animals over time and she loves playing with them.

She also loves lego sets (the inbetween size...smaller than mega blocks but not those teeny tiny ones) She has a Pooh set and a zoo set that she adores.

My DD is 18 months and LOVES Lego Duplo's, Little People Happy home and car, music makers, books, baby dolls and bottles to feed them
