What are some good educational toys for a 2 year old girl? My daughter is going to be two in May. I am wondering what would be some good educational toys for her. I have been looking but most of what I have been seeing is for infants and toys that she would get bored of. She likes things that make noise. Right now she is into drawing and organizing. She likes pushing things around. She is really into baby dolls right now. I got her one and some accessories to go with. I am just wondering what educational. I a curious what your child at this age likes or liked and also what are some toys to avoid? Thanks!
What are your favorite educational toys for 14 month old toddlers? I have 14 month old identical twin girls who love to learn and seem to be little sponges right now! We have a ton of fun, bright, and educational toys but I would like some specific suggestions from experienced parents. It is hard for us to physically visit stores (going anywhere with twins is hard!), so I do most of my ordering online. Some online sights provide customer ratings and feedback, but most do not. I would like to order some new and fun toys and activities, but don't want to waste money on items that won't be beneficial or are poorly made. Thanks, in advance, for your help and feedback!
What are your favorite educational toys? I love the fridge alphabet and I want to get my boys the Tag reading system. I love the educational toys and just want some more opinions and maybe some things that I have not seen or noticed. Thanks.
What Do You Think About Educational Toys And Videos? Seems like there's been this explosion of educational toys and videos out for children in the past few years. LeapFrog, Baby Einstein, and many many more. I've just been thinking though. Back when our parents and grandparents were young, their parents taught them everything. Every single thing they learned was something they learned from their parents. Does anyone else think it's a bit sad that it went from parents teaching kids everything, to parents popping in a Baby Einstein video and saying "Look how smart they are!" I mean, yes they're getting smarter from these toys and don't get me wrong because it's wonderful. But it seems a bit sad that the only credit parents have in that is going out and getting the toy from walmart or popping in the dvd. What do you think? Also, I hope nobody gets the impression that I am 100% against these toys or videos because I'm not. The only thing I'm against is parents who get all these things and act like they had something to do with how smart their children are when all they did was go out and buy the toy.
Is it better to buy fun toys or educational toys? My son is 7 months old now and I'm just wondering if it is more important to find toys that are educational or that I know he will have fun with for a while? My husband and I are on a pretty strict budget and can't always buy a lot of toys, so I want to get the best toys for the buck.
What do you think of all those educational toys? Do you think that they are just a way of making money by making parents insecure? Or do you think they really help? Or, do you prefer spending a lot of time with your kids outside and showing them things? I personaly can see the point of those toys and would buy my kids some of them, but I also think it is important to spend active quality time with kids. What do you think?
What kind of educational toys can you buy? Any ideas for a nerdy little 7 year old girl. Doesn't want anything 'fantasy' or girly for her Christmas, just wants educational stuff and things she'll learn from. I am NOT knocking it, btw! Thanks in advance xx Her reading test scored as an 11 year old - would a Leapster be any good? Can you get it for different age? Thanks MrWolf, I feel guilty calling her nerdy... I should have said brainy ;)
Do you really believe that 'educational' toys help your child get smarter? Also, is that your main goal? A smart child. If so, how did you get where you were without such toys? Do you have your child/children watch an educational video on a daily basis? Now that these toys and videos have become so popular and everyone is using them to get their child "ahead of everyone else" aren't all the kids back on the same playing field?
Fun, educational toys for an 8 year old girl? My oldest daughter just turned 8 last month and I am racking my brain trying to come up with some Christmas ideas. We have so many Barbies and Polly's we just can't handle anymore. She has an entire bookcase full of books and tons of craft projects. I want to get her some educational, but FUN toys, activities or projects. Nothing too mainstream like Webkinz (we are already owners of a few). Some original ideas would be great. Thanks!
What are the best educational toys, dvds, etc. for a two-year-old boy? I'm children-illiterate, but my little cousin (almost two) is a very bright little guy. I'm looking for some stuff for Christmas that will stimulate his creativity and intellectual growth. He isn't really into any particular television shows or anything like that. He doesn't really watch TV much actually. Suggestions?? Thanks in advance.
Looking for educational toys for twin 1 year olds? My boys love to look at and play with locks on doors, door knobs, the buckles on their car seat, highchairs, door knobs, anything that opens, closes...etc any ideas of where I could find something like that? I am having no luck.
Educational toys with mechanisms? My DT: Systems and control project is to create an educational toy that has a use of mechanisms- such as leadscrew or bevel gears etc. I need some help. Are there any toys that you known of?
Where can I find educational math toys for ages 6-10? When I was a kid, I had these toys that had buttons all over them with basic math equations written on them. When you push the button, it would show the answer. I had one for addition, subtraction, and multiplication. They were a huge help to me in learning and strengthening these skills, but I can't seem to find them anywhere for my own kids. Do you know of anywhere that sells these or some other similar toys that would help children struggling in math?
What are some good educational, age appropriate but inexpensive toys for a 12 month old boy? Wyatt's birthday is soon approaching (well 2 months) and he needs some toys that will make him think. He no longer plays with the toys he has, he would rather try to stack bowls, try to get things to fit together or something else somewhat challenging for a 10 month old. So what are some good toys that would keep him "thinking" and that would have a bit of challenge to it?
What are some qualities you seek in an educational toy for a child that is 2 to 6 years old? I have to design a toy, and I need a little guidance. I do not have children, so I'm a bit lost in what to do. What is it you look for as a parent when it comes to educational childrens toys? Simple yet effective? Something more complex? Something that teaches multiple things such as colors, numbers, and alphabet? Just needing a little help and guidance. Thanks in advance.
