In a doctor's waiting room, a toddler who invents little stories can open this case and begin a new one.
The Forest Friends set hands her a ready cast, and it all closes up again when her name is called. She can line the characters along the chair arm and let each one take a turn talking.
If the toddler on your list names her stuffed animals and chats with them, this GUND Cozys bunny joins that circle.
She gives each soft toy its own voice, so a new rabbit means a fresh character for her stories. The rabbit takes the seat across from her at a playroom tea party.
Making little homes for her toy animals, a girl can stack castle blocks into a barn, a tower or a bridge.
She can balance each piece carefully, then see whether her toy horse fits inside the walls she made. On the living room rug, she can hand you a piece and point to where it goes next.
VTech's giraffe belongs with a toddler who counts out loud on every stair and skips half the digits.
She chats with anything that has a face, and a long-necked companion gives her someone to recite those digits to. Her own wobbly version of the sequence becomes a little show she puts on for you from the bottom step.
Balls rolling across the yard draw in a toddler who runs after each one and hurls it back with both hands.
Her throws fly anywhere for now, and the Little Tikes Easy Score hoop hands them a target. The shot that drops through the rim becomes the one she lines up to copy over and over.
After her nap, a toddler who pulls things off and puts them back can thread each ring into place on her own.
At her age she repeats a small job again and again, and each piece gives her hands a clear place to go. The bare post waits on her bedroom floor until she gathers every piece back up.
Infantino's Press & Stay blocks let a 2-year-old girl new to stacking push pieces into towers.
The maker labels them for 6 months and up, so a toddler her age is well inside that range. Once a tower gets tall, she tugs the pieces off and starts again on the rug.
Hape's Mighty Echo toy microphone gives a 2-year-old girl who hums all day a mic to sing into.
She sings every nursery rhyme she knows, and a mic puts her in front of the show. Before story time, she can line up her stuffed animals on the rug and sing to them.
LeapFrog Strum and Count guitar for family sing-alongs
During a family sing-along, a toddler who sways to every tune can strum a LeapFrog guitar of her own beside you.
Moving to the beat is how she joins any song, and an instrument in her hands puts her in the band. Its neck rests across her lap between songs, waiting for the next chorus.
LeapFrog's music player is made for a toddler who begs for the same song again the moment it ends.
Hearing a favorite tune over and over is her fun, and owning this puts her in charge of the encore. Her living room concert, a wooden spoon for a microphone, ends with a bow just for you.
Should your handset keep vanishing into a toddler's grip, the LeapFrog Chat and Count gives her a receiver of her own.
She mimics each hello and pause you make, and this toy lets those little talks go on as long as she likes. Her made-up conversation ends with the receiver held out so you can say goodbye too.
The VTech Busy Learners cube hands a toddler girl with restless fingers something to work on.
Poking and prodding at whatever she finds is how she plays, and this cube keeps that game in one place. Set it beside her on the rug while you fold laundry nearby.
A guessing story fits a girl who shouts out answers before you even finish asking the question.
She likes being the one who knows, and each page hands her another chance to call it out first. On the bus to the park, rest it on your lap and let her decide when to flip ahead.
LeapFrog's Learning Friends book works for a toddler who hauls her favorite story over and climbs into your lap.
She asks to hear the same pictures called out again and again, and a volume full of everyday things answers that request each time. Its cover rests across your knees until she reaches over to flip forward.
