AHASRADA Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 My dd just turned 2 a couple of weeks ago, and I also went through the "safe for 2 year olds, but not babyish" search. I found LeapFrog, Little People and Lauri Toys brands to have great toys for this age. My dd has and enjoys the following toys from these companies: Leapfrog: Letter Factory (DVD and tiles, they also make fridge magnet tiles) My Pal Violet talking puppy Chat and Count Phone Touch Magic Counting Train (they also have an alphabet train) Shapes and Sharing Picnic Basket (they also have a cash register and cook pot) Little People: Doll House Van Camper Set Noah's Ark Set Village (really anything Little People is a hit) Lauri Toys: Shape and Color Sorter Tall Stacker Peg and Pegboard (I got the ones with monkey pegs) Number Express Toddler Tote HTH!

medawyn Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Is she going through a "just like mommy" stage? If so, or it seems to be coming... - play purse, especially with things that can be put in and taken out - play vacuum - her own apron and mixing bowls/spoons This link might have some helpful suggestions; many lean toward the educational but fun toys: http://www.1plus1plus1equals1.net/2012/11/christmas-gift-ideas-for-tots-2012-update/ And of course, books! No one can have too many books, even 21 month olds! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
