BEST EDUCATIONAL TOYS FOR TODDLERS November 24, 2014 Its that time of year, where we are all in desperate search for the best toys to gift to our children. Here are the top educational toys I have found for 2014.

1- LeapFrog- LeapReader jr. $9.99 Flashcards $25.99 Reader leapfrog.com- This is one of my son’s favorite toys. We bought it for him last year. You program your child’s name to the reader dog, and when you turn it on and off it greets your child by name. I love this paired with the Alphabet flash cards. It sings a song for each letter that teaches the sound of the letter, on one side and relates the letter to the animal on the other side. This has been a lasting favorite in our home. You can also get books that the dog will read to you.

2- Crocodile Creek- Jumbo tower puzzles 36 piece. $15.99 Amazon Such a cute puzzle with big, sturdy pieces, that are durable for toddler wear and tear. They have many different styles of puzzles including zoo animals, space, and farm animals to name a few. All of their puzzles are super cute and come packaged really nicely as well.

3-Peaceable Kingdom- Match up memory game and floor puzzle. $8.99 Amazon- These work great for flash cards to teach colors, numbers, body parts, english and spanish words, and many more. You can then put them together into a floor puzzle. Very colorful and bright. 4-Peaceable Kingdom- Sunny Day Pond Game $15.99 Amazon- Colorful and fun game you can do together, that teaches problem solving.

5-Melissa and Doug- Race Car Carrier $27.99 Amazon- Great way to teach numbers. How many cards on top? How many on bottom? How many if I take one away. Fun spin on the regular Flashcard method. Jagger would LOVE this.

6-Fisher Price Little People A to Z Learning Zoo $70.00 Fisher Price- Jagger would go crazy over this. There is an animal for every letter.
