It's hard to know exactly what toys your toddler will use and which ones they'll toss to the side. These are the ones that have been keeping my 2.5 year old daughter's attention lately! She loves all things girly, princess and pretend play, and these toys definitely reflect that!
Melissa & Doug Cafe / Coffee Shop I'm not sure what Melissa & Doug puts in their toys - but they are always a hit! My daughter loves making "mommy's coffee" and serving it up to me!
All things dress up - but she especially loves this Rapunzel set! They also have this set for other princesses!
Kids' Digital Camera This has been really fun for her to learn and figure out! It's very simple to use and she can take pictures of whatever she likes, whenever she wants!
Kid Connection Animal Zoo Play Set I got this because I heard it was a "dupe" for the old Little People Klip Klop sets. It's even more fun than I thought it would be - for the whole family!
Princess Magnetic Tiles Set She loves stacking the tiles up (we're still learning how to build actual buildings) and putting her character figurines on top!
Melissa & Doug Ice Cream Shop Again - M&D knows how to make a good toy! I have been teaching her what flavor everyone in the family likes so she can make our "orders" and she loves it!
Tiny Land Wooden Play Kitchen She loves going grocery shopping and taking it back to her kitchen to cook. There are so many good play kitchens out there, but I chose this one because of the storage baskets!
Melissa & Doug Pizza Party Set Fair warning - this one feels like it has a million pieces. But it keeps her entertained for so long it's hard to be mad!
Any kind of character figurines have been a huge hit as well! We have started collecting Disney Doorables (this one is our favorite series!), these Minnie Mouse Pet figurines, and any Disney sets we can find!
