[...] Last year I put together a little Holiday Gift Guide (which still has some great ideas if you want to check it out.) Those weren’t just my suggestions, many of them came from a post just like this one where I asked everyone what their child’s favorite toy is and their age. This year, I want to know what YOU want too! I will compile the comments/suggestions into a new post organized by type. I got so many great ideas from you all last year, I have to do it again! [...]

LOL, I swear you’re my 6 months older cross-continent twin.

On Jackson’s list I have the Schoenhunt Piano, so beautiful, I have visions of photoshoots in my head with that. He’s had a Potterybarn chair since birth (with his name on it and I took his monthly pictures on in), and he LOVES it. I’m totally putting those Crayon Rocks on his list and possibly the Learning Tower. Our friends have the tower for their girls and use it in the kitchen when they’re older to help prepare food.

I have the exact Amy Butler strap from that etsy seller. I also got a lens bag from her, love it, great quality too. Calibration is already on my list!

Sorelle, it’s on my list!

Justina, I installed the SAME baby piano ap and Jasper loves it, though his favorite is a game called “shapes” made by toddler teasers (its an ap) He gets so HAPPY when the kids say yay and clap when he gets it right. Problem with Jasper and iPhone apps is that he is always pressing the control button at the bottom which exits the app. It’s so annoying!

Dawn, right back at you – I ordered the PBK anywhere chair for Jasper last night! ;)

Damn you! I just bought the cube, the playhouse (so awesome and original), the crayons and the flipping piano. I sure hope you’re getting a piece of this pie! Thanks for all the recommendations!

Wowee! Thanks for taking the time to compile such an exhaustive list!

We just bought Sophie the giraffe too… even though Jude’s like 10 months old, he’s still busy chomping on stuff, so its nice to think he’ll be chomping on natural rubber rather than all that plastic!

Oh, and as an aside point… remember you were talking about iPhone apps? Just recently found Peekaboo barn and Baby piano… which I think are pretty good at keeping kids occupied! Also, WatsApp is really good for text messaging! :)
