1. A set of wooden blocks they can use to build towers and knock 'em down (over and over). You can also use these to help them work on their letters and animals.
2. A Mickey Mouse Musical Crawling Pal to be your baby's new bestie! He can crawl along next to them while *they* also learn to make some moves.
3. Charming pastel stacking rings that'll entice your tyke with its fun colors and keep 'em busy while they try to figure out what "stacking" even entails.
4. Fisher-Price's Laugh and Learn My Smart Purse, to prevent your little one from digging through *your* purse for a little while and teach them about numbers, colors, and more at the same time.
5. An activity center where your baby will be able to swivel and discover a new toy to keep their interest as soon as they get bored with whichever one they were already playing with.
6. A handmade ice cream cone rattle they can shake to their heart's content instead of *screaming* for ice cream like you and I secretly want to do when we're having a bad day.
7. A foam-filled structure designed to look like a safari that'll encourage your little one to get in some tummy time while they rearrange Velcro animals.
8. Soft pull-and-go cars that'll help develop your kiddo's motor skills and give you both a chance to practice your *motor* sounds. Vroom, vroom!
9. Fisher-Price's Laugh and Learn Game and Learn Controller you can give to your tyke to start their video game training. You don't win millions of dollars on Fortnite as a tween without learning to compete from birth, right?
10. An out of this world play mat that'll encourage your baby to *reach for the stars* and stay busy long enough for you to brush your teeth.
11. A cooling teether featuring elements of nature that little ones can gnaw on to distract them from any pain from their incoming chompers — and hopefully prevent them from wailing for a little.
12. A bus-shaped sorting toy your adventurous tyke can use to learn about shapes and drag around the house, leaving you with plenty of time to eat a quick lunch *mostly* undisturbed.
13. A TouchWords book filled with raised words for hands-on learning will fill your kiddo's *appetite* for sensory activities.
14. A modern geometric activity chair that'll coordinate nicely with your living room decor and keep your baby busy for a bit.
15. A Laugh and Learn Puppy from Fisher Price complete with over 75 (!!!) songs, sounds, tunes, and phrases to keep your kiddo happily humming along so you can get through your Zoom meeting mostly in peace.
16. A touch-and-feel puzzle with a mirror in the middle so your adorable little one will be able to admire just how cute they are while working on their fuzzy puzzle.
17. A Rattle and Shake Barbell from Bright Starts that'll let your mini-me feel like they're getting a workout in while you break a sweat during yours.
18. Or a whimsical knit rattle to pair nicely with the fairy tales you usually make up off the top of your head before putting your baby down for a nap.
19. A shape sorter you can bring in the car to entertain your tyke during your next road trip (or honestly any time you venture out to get groceries or gas).
20. A super soft stacker toy with rings designed to look like your little one's favorite animals — you better believe they'll keep busy trying to put each one in place and replicate critter sounds at the same time.
21. A classic push toy like the one you probably had when you were a wee little one — a perfect way to bring a dose of nostalgia into your home and joy to your baby.
22. A personalized wooden toy you can place on your kiddo's shelf for decor when they're not zooming around the house with it.
23. A magical drawing board that'll capture your little one's attention from the moment they lay their tiny eyes on it. They'll be able to make scribbly master pieces filled with shapes and colors all the while you catch up on Netflix.
24. Unicorn-inspired instruments so your tyke can express themselves *musically* ideally at the same time you plan to vacuum the whole house.
25. Foot rattles that'll be the perfect distraction for any little one who just realized, "OMG, I have feet!"
26. And a jungle-themed activity table to ensure your kiddo has a *roaring* good time and you get a few minutes of calm and quiet.
Is there anything better than a happy, entertained baby?
