Any fun magnet suggestions?

Embracetheday · November 2012

We just got DS a magnetic dry erase board. Since he's only 2, I don't trust him with dry erase markers in his playroom but he loves to play with the magnets. Right now he only has an alphabet set but I'd like to pick up something cool and fun for Christmas. Any ideas? Does your LO have a set they really enjoy and keeps them entertained?!?

TIA!

Leap Frog has some cool magnet sets.

Melissa & Doug has neat wooden magnet sets. We have the farm one, the construction trucks one & we already have the dinosaur set stashed for DS's stocking. We were also given the alphabet set for his bday. They have great storage boxes & when he gets bored with one set we pack them away and grab a different set!

We have the Leapfrog Fridge Farm magnets and think they're pretty fun.

Also, just an FYI, you can use crayons on those dry erase boards instead of markers. We started with the Crayola Dry-Erase Crayons, but I have found just the regular Crayola Washable Crayons work great too, and they're cheaper! I just use a damp paper towel to wipe it off and it comes off easily. You can use a dry towel, but it takes a lot of effort to scrub them off that way, just a little water makes it a lot easier. My 2 year old loves drawing on there, and it saves us from going through a million sheets of paper!
