2. A marble run set if you've got a kiddo who's waaaaay smarter than their own good, so basic toys just won't cut it for them.

It'll all be worth it when you see the glee on their face as they watch their marble make its way down the track.
Promising reviews: "My 5- and 3-year-olds (and me) have spent hours building towers and watching marbles clatter down these chutes, steps, gears, and spirals, HOURS! And they’re not bored yet! It’s also educational to learn the physics of slopes by experience. Plus, it comes with enough marbles that losing a few doesn’t matter." —Joyce Parker
"This is a really neat toy that has provided literally hours and hours of enjoyment for my 4-year-old nephew (and me!). The pieces fit well together, it is very sturdy and stands up well even on carpet. There are an infinite number of ways to build these runs, and this toy never gets boring. Highly recommended." —Becca

When its hidden it makes various toot noises and says stuff so the kids know if they are close. And when they find it and press the button to do and sing the silly poopy dance....even you will dance and sing along!!! Doesn't need batteries and come on, its poop? Who doesn't think poop and toot noises are funny and if they don't they are lying to themselves. A must have for fun with your kids without barely doing any work!!." —andrea kelli gorman

She totes her creations around in the adorable carry case and enjoys making Mommy (and Daddy!) wear them."
Promising review: "My 3-year-old twins loved it, entertained for hours, which is rare and so worth $7. Perfect for teaching coordination and color patterns, and it encourages creativity. The necklaces are a soft, stretchy material with a safe breakaway clasp that also stays on well. I wore a necklace for hours around the house, and it didn't fall off. The beads are cute and have a good variety of colors. Overall great project, loads of fun for toddlers." —Lyss

Promising review: "Best Hot Wheels toy we’ve ever bought! The entire family was impressed by this toy! My 6- (almost 7-) year-old built the whole thing on his own and couldn’t believe how much bigger it was than he expected! The car reveal was awesome as it goes through the wash and it’s very well designed to launch the car around and squirt water etc. We love all the hookups for other tracks to go through and around the track. Kids (4-year-old girl included) played with this for literally hours on day one because it’s so cool! Minimal fighting over the shower octopus part. 😂 Very impressed, so glad we bought this! More fun than we even expected!" —ShopSui

The adults also found themselves fixated on playing the different levels as well! It was challenging and fun! We love marble runs and games so this was a perfect fit.

Promising review: "For years my kids had a similar fort building toy from a different brand, but when we saw this one was available in glow in the dark (which is perfect for Halloween btw), we had to get one! We were happy to see that the quality is actually superior to the other fort we have (stronger plastic for sure) and were able to combine it with the other fort to make a huge castle (we're talking three king size sheets required to cover it!!). My spouse who is an Occupational Therapist also commented on how this toy is great for developing/improving fine motor skills which is a plus. Very happy with this purchase which keeps my kids entertained for hours on end." —TDB

Promising review: "Scissors skills are important both in and of themselves and because it strengthens the hand muscles to be used for learning to write. My 4-year-old LOVES this book. We received it this week and she has used it for a couple of hours each day. Many of the pages are cutting things out and putting them together (four-scoop ice cream cone, pizza with pepperonis, the components to build a house or a car, puzzles). We've used tape or glue to put the components together. This book is interesting enough to have caught the attention of my older children as well, although I make them let her do the cutting. :D Would make a great gift as it is so unique." —Mom of 7

37. A foam pogo jumper just perfect for children who never seem to slow down or run out of energy — now they can hop around until they're spent and start all over again the next day (or in a couple of hours)!
Promising review: "I was happily astonished upon receipt of this pogo stick. It kept my 4-year-old grandson busy for hours at a time during the bitter cold days of this holiday season. It is well made and adjustable as children grow in height. It encourages developing a fine sense of balance. The material is tough enough to withstand use outdoors, but gentle enough to be used on hardwood floors or rugs. It is a great birthday gift for any child 4 to 8-years-old." —frankie

Promising review: "My 6-year-old son plays with this every day since we opened it up! He has brought it to the neighbors to show it to them and everyone thinks it's such a fun little toy with all the tricks it can do. I am quite impressed with how easily it glides from concrete to the grass, and over obstacles without getting stuck. Hours of fun! —Rebecca A

39. A pack of Mega Bloks because if there's anything kids love to do, it's build up elaborate towers just to knock them down later. These jumbo-sized blocks will give them a much bigger canvas to create with and parents can worry less about the choking hazards of small pieces.
The set includes 80 building blocks and a storage bag.
Promising review: "My 2-year-old son and 1-year-old daughter absolutely love these! They spend hours playing with these and as a family me and my husband and the kids build things together. The great things about them is that they are large so they aren't a choke hazard. My daughter will sometimes try to put these in her mouth so we are happy that we don't have to worry about that with these jumbo-sized blocks. The blocks are colorful and are made of good-quality plastic so you don't have to worry about small pieces or worry about them breaking and being harmful. These are highly recommended and very much worth every penny. Probably the best toy I have bought for my kids in a while." —Dee

40. A rainbow-colored saucer swing just perfect for kids who have no problem ~hanging around~ while they read, relax, or run around outside or in the playroom. Plus, I'm sure all their friends will get a kick out of it, too!

Promising review: "Very, very sturdy and easy assembly. We had a reunion and this swing kept the kids busy for hours. I definitely will be buying another." —msbakwudhic
