<\/p>To my surprise, this was the hardest section for which to\u00a0choose items. I wonder why\u2026\n

1. International Playthings Lift-Off Rocket: Recommended for ages 18 months+, this rocket, with a lift off sequence, rocket sounds and light up boosters, has been receiving raves from across the board.\u00a0 <\/span>It comes with 2 astronauts, a space dog, alien, dune buggy and moon crater. \u00a0<\/span>
<\/p><\/span>APPROX. RETAIL: $ 39.99<\/span>

2. Radio Flyer Fold 2 Go Trike: Recommended for ages over 1 and a \u00bd, this is a great, compact award-winning tricycle.\u00a0 <\/span>My son loved his as did his friends (they have both a boy and girl version).\u00a0 <\/span>It comes fully assembled for instant riding and folds up for easy storage.\u00a0 <\/span>It\u2019s also reasonably priced, which is good, since most kids will outgrow it by the time they turn 3.\u00a0 <\/span>
<\/span><\/span>APPROX. RETAIL: $49.99\u00a0<\/span>(You can get them for $39.99 at Toys R Us.)
<\/span>
3. EEBOO Tot Towers:\u00a0<\/span>Fun for ages 18 months and up, these beautiful block towers are great at helping toddlers build language and motor skills.\u00a0 <\/span>(I especially like the award-winning \u201cRead to Me\u201d tower.)
APPROX. RETAIL: $24.95

<\/span>4. Melissa & Doug\u2019s<\/a> Monster Bowling: Recommended for ages 2+, this set is super cute (and I don\u2019t usually like silly looking toys!).\u00a0 <\/span>Kids love this <\/span>colorful bowling set, which has a monster ball and 6 pins. \u00a0<\/span>While they are having fun, the kids are also <\/span>developing physical dexterity, which is great!
<\/span>APPROX. RETAIL: <\/span>$24.95
<\/span><\/span>
5. Imaginarium 5-way Giant Bead Maze Cube: Recommended for ages 18 months to 3 years, this cube is a better version of what kids normally play with while waiting in doctors\u2019 offices.\u00a0 <\/span>All sorts of skills are learned and\/or reinforced in a fun way.\u00a0 <\/span>
APPROX. RETAIL: $ 49.99<\/span>
\n\n

6. IQ Preschool Push Along Block Cart<\/p><\/span>: <\/span>Suggested for ages 2 years and up, this multiple award winning set include 36 hardwood blocks in 10 different shapes all within a wooden push-cart.\u00a0 <\/span>I like that it combines a<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>pull toy, building blocks and puzzle solving all in one package.
APPROX. RETAIL: <\/span>$49.95<\/span>
\n
7.\u00a0Building sets by <\/span>JAKKS Pacific<\/a>: Specifically, I like their <\/span>KnotW\u00fcd\u2122 sets<\/span> (recommended for ages <\/span>18 months to 7 years)\u00a0w<\/span>hich use a durable, soft (no hard edges!) and lightweight foam material created to look like traditional wood.\u00a0 <\/span>This line features foam puzzles, construction block sets and other playsets.\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>I also like JAKKS\u2019 colorful new Gorilla Blocks\u2122 which are large, lightweight (they <\/span>even float in water!)<\/span>, interlocking blocks that allow kids to build almost anything that they can think of creating. \u00a0<\/span>They are great introductory blocks for young toddlers. <\/span>
<\/span>KnotW\u00fcd\u2122: <\/span>Range from $2.99 to $19.99
<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Gorilla Blocks: Range from $14.99 to $49.99
