The Best Gifts For 2 Year Olds
I cannot believe Marley is turning two in less than a month! It feels like she was born about five minutes ago, but here I am planning her birthday celebration and shopping for the perfect gifts. Since this is my second time around the block with a toddler, I wanted to share some of the best gifts for 2 year olds. These are some of the most highly recommended toys from friends, things that we reach for again and again, and things that are on Marley’s list.
The best birthday gifts for 2 year olds
We have found toys that we reach for daily over the past few years between Marley and Maeve.
The girls love their bath robes, and it is so much easier that wrapping them in a towel after the bath. This blanket is Maeve’s favorite through all seasons. We have this baby doll stroller, but are getting a second one so that the girls can stop fighting over it. The learning tower and sensory table are things that would be used every single day through the years to come, and all of the open ended toys are what they choose to play with most often (doctor kit, cleaning supplies, little people, coffee maker, sink, and ice cream scooper. The little backpack is the same brand we have for Maeve and it is great for school, little overnight trips to grandma and grandpa’s house, or pretending to “go shopping”.
I have learned that soft baby dolls are the way to go, for when your toddler demands on sleeping with all of them.
