The Winners - Past and Active Gifts!
Here are some of the "winner" gift ideas we've given over the years. Some of these are still "active" gifts that haven't been given, so it'll be interesting to see what family members read my post and spoil their upcoming gifts!
Toddlers

This toy has gotten SO much use in our house, and not just from the toddler! I've even found myself playing around, trying to stack the half-rings in odd balancing situations.

We called our kids Stinky Face, so when we saw this book series, we added it to our library. Every holiday we try to get the corresponding book too.

Combining physical motion and buttons, this is a kids dream toy! We gifted this specific one to a friend for her daughter's birthday, but we one outside that Gwen is constantly using - the inside of our house is just a little too cramped right now to let it inside!
Other Ride-On Options: Amazon
The Land Before Time Collection

Even just looking at this cover starts the songs playing in my head, Petrie's rambling, and makes me smile! Little kids love dinosaurs, and especially the later films in the series, these are funny, colorful adventures to share! That first movie is always a classic though, and makes this mama cry every time!
Individual Films: Amazon
Bigger Kids

Aedan was on a Star Wars kick for a bit, and we wanted to get him better ones than the collapsible versions. On the otherhand, it's also the biggest downside that they aren't collapsible! More sturdy to fight with though.

My friend, Whitney, made this cute Baby Yoda, that is still displayed in my son's room over a year later! He's got a sturdy bottom, so he can stand on his own, but he's comfortable and squishy to snuggle too!
