Every one of us must have a memory, one of our earliest memories, of a particular toy that we cherish so dearly that only invoking the thought of it in our minds makes us feel all of the sudden more relaxed, energized and at peace with the world, such was the joy it brought us!
Wouldn’t it be wonderful to provide a 2-year-old with a toy that, potentially, could be equally as fun and memorable? You can do so by gifting a toy as awesome as these ones.
#1 Mites (6 Pack)
This product was recommended by Andrew Rainville from Maple Landmark
Back to the basics – no batteries, no electronics, no screens! These simple cars allow a child’s imagination to run free and explore the world. All six cars are large enough for a toddler to grip but small enough to easily pack for a trip.
#2 Red Bus Reward Chart

The multi-award winning Red Bus is helping make parenting a little bit easier! A contemporary, 3D alternative to the traditional reward chart. Ideal for toilet training, better bedtimes, tackling tantrums and much more.
#3 Battat B. Wee MD Doctor Kit
This product was recommended by Alli Wittbold from Alli Wittbold Freelance Writer
My two year old daughter received the Battat B. Wee MD Doctor Kit for her birthday over 6 months ago, and it is still one of her most used toys in the house. This gift was a total hit! There’s nothing a two year old likes more than the opportunity to turn their real world experiences into pretend play. It’s been especially helpful in diffusing her prior fear to the doctor (and shots!). She uses it independently on her stuffed animal “patients”, pretends to be a vet and gives our dog check-ups, and invites me in for regular check-ups as well. The two year old in your life is going to love this doctor kit!
