Melissa & Doug Wooden Toy Mail Box$29.98 at Amazon.com |
Young children, ages 3-7 or so, like to “play mail.” For our kids, simply sliding their own mail creations under doors can keep them occupied. This nicely constructed wooden toy mailbox by Melissa & Doug delivers bundles of fun! It features three over-sized slots for sorting various sizes of mail, and includes interchangeable stamps that “stick” to the letters. The box’s 2 doors (one magnetic and one key operated), can be opened for removing mail. The box measures 8″ x 14″ x 8″. A fun bedroom addition where parents can slip little notes. This is a toy that really delivers!

Beanbag chairs have been popular with both boys and girls for decades and are still going strong — we remember ours! This flower chair is just one of many beanbag designs you can choose at LillianVernon.com. And like many of their products, you can personalize it with your grandchild’s name (up to 12 letters). These chairs, purely for lounging, are now made from “weightless” polystyrene and are more comfortable and durable than ever. The seams are double-stitched to prevent leaks. Some covers are machine-washable while others are hand-washable. It does take some time for the chairs to be shipped (up to 15 days for the covers and up to 4-6 weeks for the delivery of the beanbag insert), so be sure to order with enough time in advance. And once it arrives your grandchild can relax (in the chair, of course)!

Levels of Discovery Musical Rocker$129.95 at Amazon.com |
We’ve fallen in love with this music-theme kids rocking chair and with all of the kids furniture made by Levels of Discovery. These pieces are excellent quality and are crafted to be given as special gifts. This 29″ x 12 1/2″ rocking chair has a mini five-note xylophone with wooden mallet attached to its arm. A keyboard and sheet music are painted on the backrest, and the tiles, also on the seat back, flip back and forth from “Do, Re, Mi” to musical notes. Each chair includes a special stamp beneath the seat to be personalized with your grandchild’s name, your name, and the special occasion for which the chair was given. And if that’s not enough, each chair includes a photo greeting card so that your grandchild can say “thank you” in a memorable way. Purchase this chair or browse other Levels of Discovery pieces, such as the school house, alphabet soup, all-star sports, and artist rockers, his/her majesty’s throne potty chairs, tables and chairs, entertainment center, bookcase and toy box bench, by clicking on “Click Here,” and searching under “Levels of Discovery Furniture.”

Bedtime behavior is so touch-and-go during baby’s first and second year — and sometimes comforting “aids” can really help everyone get some much needed sleep. We received an earlier version of this Ocean Wonders Aquarium by Fisher-Price when our son was 6 months old and he (as well as his baby sister) ADORED it! We always knew when our kids were awake, from that, oh-so-familiar, yet not so annoying music. We’ve heard many similar reviews from other parents, so this Fisher Price aquarium HAD to make the Gift Guide. It attaches to the crib, and parents, or baby, or toddler can choose whatever setting is preferred or necessary — including different varieties of soothing lullaby music, bubble sounds, soft-glowing lights, or moving fish. There is a volume button (thank goodness), and three settings, depending on what kind of stimulation is needed: music only; music plus soft glowing lights; and music plus lights, bubbles, and moving fish. Little explorers’ hands can also press or turn to make some of the marine friends open, spin, etc.

Another great HABA baby product! This “curtains rise” circus animals mobile is in gender-neutral colors and features adorable little animals. The mouse and bear are attached by magnets so that they can hang as acrobats or be taken down to hug or cuddle. The star has a small foil mirror, the donut has a small bell, and the green and blue ornament rattles softly. This is a wonderful gift that your baby will love.
