Awesome because it has a movement sensor so you can be sure your baby is breathing! Takes away some of the scariness of having a newborn
Where Is Maisy?: A Lift-the-Flap BookWhere Is Maisy?: A Lift-the-Flap Book by Lucy Cousins
Buy new: $4.99 / Used from: $0.01
All Maisy books, especially the lift-the-flap varieties are GREAT for little boys and girls. They hold the 1 yr old crowd captive, when I found that my kids didn't have the attention for a lot of other books.
Little Bear - Rainy Day TalesLittle Bear - Rainy Day Tales
Buy new: $8.49 / Used from: $4.71
All little bear videos are great! My daughter, who is 2 1/2 would watch all day every day, if I let her. My 4 1/2 year old son also loves this show, and has since he was 2. I like this cartoon because nothing really happens--it is very mild and nice for the young ones.
Zoombinis: Logical JourneyZoombinis: Logical Journey
My 4 1/2 year old son loves this computer game. He is young and doesn't really understand all the logic yet, but he is able to play it by himself. When I play it I realize how clever and engaging it is. If I chose a harder level I would be challenged too.
MOBI Portable Rechargeable Light BlueMOBI Portable Rechargeable Light Blue
Great night light for kids. It is rechargable and the kids can hang onto it in their bed or put on the nightstand. We call it "night light guy" at our house!
Swimmy (Knopf Children's Paperbacks)Swimmy (Knopf Children's Paperbacks) by Leo Lionni
Buy new: $6.99 / Used from: $0.16
Leo Leonni's books are classics and this book teaches that there is strength in numbers. Love it! I tend toward the classics in children's books.
Make Way for DucklingsMake Way for Ducklings by Robert McCloskey
Buy used from: $7.62
A classic.
Peter Rabbit Book and Toy (Potter)Peter Rabbit Book and Toy (Potter) by Beatrix Potter
Buy new: $10.87 / Used from: $3.25
My 4 year old LOVES the Beatrix Potter books. We have a complete set of the little books (I think it is more fun to read them in little book form than one giant anthology). He especially likes THE TALE OF PETER RABBIT because 1) a rabbit is made into a pie and 2) the book is essentially a giant chase scene. However, we read all the books to him and he really likes them all.
Trebimbi Puppets 3-pc. Flatware Set - Sky BlueTrebimbi Puppets 3-pc. Flatware Set - Sky Blue
Buy new: $24.99
FANTASIC. The fork actually grabs stuff, and there is a knife, which is unusual for a child's cutlery set. But guess what? Your kids will want a knife eventually. The set clicks together, which is FUN!
