FAVORITE KIDS TOYS/GAMES/PUZZLES

2020 has been off to a very interesting start. This Corona Virus has really taken over, resulting in school closings and 3+ weeks of social distancing. This means families will be spending a lot more time at home. Those of you with children know how LONG the days can feel when restrictions are placed on you and the isolation that sets in. To hopefully help combat feelings of going crazy and keeping them entertained, I’ve put together a list of some of our favorite toys/games that aren’t electronic based. From toddlers to pre-teen, these are great for using your creativity and imagination. Some help with learning colors and fine motor skills, while others promote math knowledge, problem solving, and critical thinking!

All of the products shared are ones we own or have used/played with frequently! From my 2 year old daughter to my 6 1/2 year old son, they are entertained for hours with many of these! Some are even enjoyed by the entire family, so some offer fun for everyone, including grandmas and grandpas! First up are some ideas for toddlers and early elementary aged kids…
