Wooden Toys for Babies and Toddlers

Wooden toys have a throwback appeal that many stylish parents who know the value of the classics love. These toys are gorgeous exercises of shape, form and color, so that adults will be pleased to have them on display, while babies find the shapes engaging.

• A simple box with punch holes is a finely crafted option on a list of gifts for 2 year olds. Balls in low-key colors drop into holes in a box. Babies or toddlers use the mallet to help the ball find the best hole for its size and then fish the ball out of a wider hole on the side.
• Stacker toys are a fun way to get coordination going while entering into a world of character play. While toddlers organize wooden beads on dowels by color, little animal heads top the dowels for a fun way to start understanding proportion.
• Once a nursery features wooden toys, you can expand upon the theme from a decor perspective, too, by selecting rocker toys that have wooden rockers.

Plush Toys for Hugging and Playing

Plush toys are always popular as gifts for 2 year olds.  Anything babies or toddlers can hug for comfort while also developing imaginative worlds is going to be a hit. Indulge in a few adorable toys as a main gift or to accompany other presents.

• Look for plush animals that they might not already have, like plush elephants, hippos or other creatures. Classic bears are great, but most babies don't already have a plush alligator family.
• Select a plush rocker for a nursery space where toddlers can have fun balancing on a comfortable ride that rocks back and forth at a pace they set. To make the gift particularly memorable, personalize it with their name on the rocker.
• Baby blankets are a wonderful add-on gift or select a stack of them in different colors to give toddlers a place to play or a way to wrap up during story time or while watching shows.
