When shopping for a toddler or preschooler, especially a third born of the same gender, gifts get tricky!  I have rounded up a few fun, hot gifts this season that any toddler or preschooler would love to receive.  There is a mix of everything, so make sure to scroll all the way down!

Strider Sport Balance Bike

strider balance bike

We love to ride bikes as a family.  Little Brother wants to ride up and down the street with his brothers so badly, but he just is not quite ready to pedal his hand-me-down bike with training wheels.  We love this Strider Balance Bike because it is a safe way to teach Little Brother to balance and have fun on a bike.  I love that the tires never need air and never go flat!  It is super light weight, so if Mom and Dad need to carry it, it is not a chore.  Learn more about Strider here.

ThinkBaby

thinkbaby

This fun set is from ThinkBaby, but it is great for the entire family.  This BPA-free feeding set contains a Bento box, soup bowl, baby bowl, kids cup, and lids.  It is completely free of BPA, phthalates, nitrosamines, lead, PVC, PET, Melamine, and biologically harmful chemicals.  I love that the Bento box has an air tight lid and won't leak.  The interior is stainless steel and separates from the outer shell, which makes them easy to clean.  

Re-Play

Re-Play is an American owned and operated company that makes high quality, durable kids' dishes out of recycled milk jugs, in many fun colors!  Re-Play products are free from BPA, BPS, PVC, lead, phthalates and melamine.  All of our boys love using Re-Play products, and the colors are simply fun!

Drink In The Box

We received a Drink in the Box in one of those subscription boxes, and let me tell you…this is something that they and any cousins or guests fight over.  It's a fun way to get hydrated!

Love2Learn Elmo

Love2Learn Elmo is such a fun gift for little ones!  He is a happy friend who teaches kids all about letters, numbers, potty training, and more!  Read my full review of Love2Learn Elmo!

VTech® Care for Me Learning Carrier™

This sweet toy comes in orange or pink and teaches colors, shapes, and pet care, while kids take care of their puppy!

VTech® Ring & Learn Cash Register™ 

gifts-for-preschoolers

My boys have all loved pretending to be a cashier, and this is a toy that they all can play with together.  The Ring & Learn Cash Register teaches numbes, colors, food and healthy-eating phrases, all while delighting kids with music, lights, sounds, and songs!

VTech® Bizzy the Mix & Move Bot™ 

bizzy the robot

Bizzy The Mix & Move Robot is so much fun!  The boys play with Bizzy and just laugh and laugh!  You can change out his hats, arms and legs to make hilarious characters!  Kids love the sound effects, lights, songs, fun facats and questions!

Fisher-Price Think & Learn Code-a-pillar

code-a-pillar

Code-A-Pillar is a perfect toy to introduce little ones to coding.  They can adjust the segments to make him go left, right, or straight, and the segments light up as the action happens.

Carter's Rain Boots

carters 3

Every kid needs a pair of rain boots!  Little Brother uses them for playing in the mud, helping in the garden or with the chickens, or just as a fashion accessory!  Read about our awesome experience with finding new, fun clothes at Carter's here.

B. Toys Ribbit-Tat-Tat Light-Up Musical Drum

Little Brother just received this fun drum for an early birthday gift from his grandparents and he L-O-V-E-S it!  It is perfect for him and as a parent of kids with lots of musical instruments…it is one of the least annoying ones we have.  HA!  We love this fun drum!

Let's Go Fishin' Game

top gifts for toddlers and preschoolers

Let's Go Fishin' XL is an extra large version of the classic game…easier for little ones!

Duplo Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Birthday Parade

Duplo Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Birthday Parade is a great gift for little ones.  My kids always loved Duplos, so any Duplo set at this age is great, but Mickey and Minnie?  Who can beat that!?

MEGA BLOKS First Builders Block Scooping Wagon

Why didn't this Scooping Wagon exist when my oldest was a toddler?  I am in love with this idea!  The wheels scoop up the blocks into the wagon, which makes cleanup fun!

Which gift is your little one looking forward to this season?

My kids love their go-fish game! Great for working their motor skills as well as having them sort/pick by color and then counting the fish!

I really like the balance bike! Wish they had them when dd was younger! The Drink Box is awesome too - that is what dd takes her water for her lunch in! Even big kids like them! :-)
