Although those are very good choices for Christmas gifts I didn’t see Little Pet Shop or Baby Einsten toys.
My child loves playing with those Little Pet Shop toys. These are one of the few toys she will actually sit down and play with for more than a half hour, which is shocking b/c everything else is “I want it that” and the next day it’s buried away underneath another toy she thought would be fun. All her friends have these little pets and I think they’re really cute too.
For babies, I think the best toys are made by Baby Einstein. My child grew up with the tapes and a few items, but now there are so many toys to chose from. Not only do they make them so colorful, to keep a baby’s attention, but the toys are designed to expand your baby’s developing mind. Check them out!

Hi Renita, it took me a minute or two to remember Baby Einstein. I think I’ve heard of those toys through Jennifer Garner? Baby Einstein toys for babies and toddlers are adorable; I wish I had remembered to add them in this article. Hopefully next time I’ll remember.

Hmm…, it seems like it’s the natural rules of attraction, where the boys loved robotic and gadgets stuffs, while the girls liked all those barbie and glittering stickers things!
However, I found out that the “Harry Potter” books is the most suitable gift to all the boys and girls, isn’t it, Lin?
