A child cannot have enough blocks!  Blocks have been shown to encourage cognitive, language, creative, math, and even early reading skills--the perfect toy!

These blocks help to promote better motor skills through building as well as help children learn pretend play. They are colorful and soft, making them safe for toddlers (read on)...

This is a great piece of furniture to have for your playroom.  Children learn responsibility when they clean up after themselves, when a child has a great spot at their level to put their dress up clothes away, it encourages them to have fun while being responsible.

What parent doesn't want QUIET toys that teach their child invaluable skills?  I am a strong advocate for having many different types of blocks around the house.  These blocks are soft and durable and encourage gross motor skills and coordination.  Kids love them because of their size.

As a Speech Pathologist, I work with a lot of young boys... and boys love Legos and machines.  This is just a fun kit of legos for boys of any age!

Students become city planners with the new Town Developers Set. With an assortment of basic bricks, windows, and roof pieces, students can plan and build a town, complete with homes, office buildings, a hospital, and more.

Who doesn't love legos?  Boys and Girls, no matter their interests, all love legos.  This is a great set and makes a wonderful gift.  Teaches children basic concepts, vocabulary, math skills, etc.  Legos make excellent toys!

Game night!  It's a great way to bond with your kids and show them how much fun learning can be.  Children learn and model themselves after the people they are closest too.  Encourage your child's love of games and learning through these games.

It's not a bad toy for a long car ride either!  Young children love anything that looks like a game.  Read on...

An essential toy for any child.  This adds another element to creative play in that it also includes Legos.  There are so many opportunities for learning with a play house.  And yes, even boys should have one too.  Young children can be encouraged to speak for the people and role play.  Language concepts such as pronouns (I, you, yours, mine, his/hers, he/she), spatial concepts (upstairs, downstairs), and so much more are easily worked in to play with this toy.

Challenge children to be creative and innovative using this beautiful puppet theater to highlight their thespian skills.

Does your child love books?  This is a perfect toy to engage the child further into the book. Or, perhaps you have a busy body who can't sit for a book... then use this to encourage attention by engaging the child in more than just sitting and listening would do.  This allows the child to interact with the story line, further enhancing their receptive language skills (how well they understand).
