STUFF WE LOVE
*************
Surprise Sounds Kitchen
by Tyco Preschool
Ages 9 months to 3 years
<http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00000IT9R/entertainmentsit>
Ah, the joy of playing. Surprise Sounds Kitchen is just the
thing for growing gourmets. With tons of things to do and
dishes to make, toddlers will love whipping up some fun with
this winner of the 1999 Child award. Adorned with friendly
Sesame Street faces and equipped with everything a toddler
could want (even the kitchen sink), this is one toy even the
pickiest child will eat right up.

Teletubbies Talking Laa-Laa
by Hasbro
Ages 1 to 4
<http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00000JDM2/entertainmentsit>
Love 'em or hate 'em, parents everywhere agree--there is
something about Teletubbies. Talking Laa-Laa will delight
your Tubby fan with her soft yellow body that's just right
for hugging. But she's more than just a smiling face... give
her tummy a tap, and she'll talk in Tubby phrases and even
sing her Laa-Laa song. A perfect companion for the TV show
or for taking along on adventures.

PRIMO Train
by LEGO Systems, Inc.
Ages 6 months to 3 years
<http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00000JGR0/entertainmentsit>
LEGO toys for little ones... the PRIMO Train is a bright,
colorful introduction to building, stacking, and role-play
for your favorite conductor. Help the engineer give the
elephant and the bear a wild ride, or place the funny little
penguin or kitty in the top of the circus car. When the
window opens, out they pop! Just right for stimulating
imagination and encouraging developing motor skills. All
aboard!


COPYCATS: GREAT MAKE-BELIEVE TOYS
*********************************
One- and two-year-olds love to play make believe. Their
little imaginations are fueled by creative and exploratory
play. Pretend play toys like the Ring 'n' Rattle Phone and
Steering Wheel Infant Toy encourage busy toddlers to
practice day-to-day activities and imitate grownups. Check
out our collection of make believe must-haves.
Toys for Ages 1-2 years


TOYS THAT TEACH
***************
Aquarium Shape Sorter
by Little Tikes
Ages 6 months to 4 years
<http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00000IRLO/entertainmentsit>
With more coordinated hands and fingers and a growing sense
of experimentation, little ones need toys that encourage
their developing physical skills. The Aquarium Shape Sorter
is a great way for 1- and 2-year-olds to practice shape
recognition and sorting. Babies and toddlers love the
brightly colored blocks and rough-and-tumble container.

Dr. Penelope Leach, author of "Your Baby & Child," explains
the skills babies and toddlers need to master in her article
"Play for Toddlers: 1 to 2 Years." Plus, Amazon.com editors
recommend more toys that build key skills and make learning
fun.

TOYS UNDER $20
**************
Crocodile Bath Mitt Puppet
by Crocodile Creek
Ages 6 months to 4 years
<http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00000IZKT/entertainmentsit>
Have to beg and bribe baby when it's time for a bath? Never
again... the Crocodile Bath Mitt Puppet from Crocodile Creek
will have your hesitant little tadpole begging for the tub.
Lather up this adorable croc and good clean fun is moments
away. His silly grin and soft terry teeth make bath time a
fun time.

Walk 'n' Waddle Duck Push Toy
by Fisher-Price
Ages 1 to 3
<http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00000IZOV/entertainmentsit>
This funny, friendly push-along duck toy is sure to get your
toddler giggling and following along in delight. Push mama
duck across the floor and watch her waddle--feet flapping,
quacking madly--while baby duck races to catch up. Made of
sturdy, bright-colored plastic, Walk 'n' Waddle Duck has an
easy-to-grasp handle and is suitable for both indoor and
outdoor play.

My Friend Earl E. Bird
by International Playthings
Ages 1 to 4
<http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00000IV8I/entertainmentsit>
It will be a pleasure to meet My Friend Earl E. Bird--an
updated version of the original Oppenheim Toy Portfolio
award winner. Created by child development experts, he's a
medley of interesting colors, textures, patterns, and
sounds. Velvety in some places, bumpy in others, his foot
rattles and his beak crinkles. And a mirror is revealed when
you unsnap his red backpack.
