LeAnn's Favorite Toys

I took these pics of sweet baby LeAnn a week or two ago and already shared them with her mommy, but they are just too, too CUTE not to post here on the blog.
 A few years ago I made the decision to steer our toys in the direction of simple, non-toxic, kid-powered items that stimulate creativity, imagination, and learning.  I've also learned over the years that less is more. I try to limit it to two or less toys that I allow out for children to play with at any given time and keep them in a closet and out of sight when they are not in use.
 
We have very few toys that are battery powered.  
Although, one of the battery-powered toys we do have is in these pictures.  :)
LeAnn LOVES our Leapfrog Learn-Along Leap plush toy that sings the "ABC's" when you squeeze (or kick or swat in LeAnn's case) his belly.  She'll know her ABC's in no time with this little guy around!  :)
   Her other favorite is this Plan Toy Stacking Cone.  
This keeps her occupied for a good 30 minutes or more! 
 She gums it, knocks it down, rolls the cylinders, and listens to the pieces 
make delightful knocking sounds as she bangs them together.  
This is also a great toy for me to teach her colors and shapes!  
 What a happy baby playing with her toys!!  
YOU, baby LeAnn, are a delight and 
we love to watch you have fun playing with your  toys!
