The holidays are right around the corner and apparently we all needed to order our gifts, like, yesterday. But don’t panic, we’ve got you covered with our top picks for toys for the scary-cute toddler in your life. At this age they love imaginative play, toys, and movement, so we’ve rounded up things that will entertain them for longer than five minutes and also not add to the endless clutter we already deal with all day, every day.
You’re welcome.

Little Tikes® Learn & Play™ 2-in-1 Activity Tunnel
$52.99
from
Little Tikes
This is one of those toys kids and parents will love equally. Kids will find so many ways to play: they can crawl through the soft tunnel, play peekaboo with you or their friends, drop balls into two different ball drop towers at the end, or simply press the buttons to play music. And parents will be thankful for how easily it collapses, so you can put it away when it’s not in use. Love that!
Little Tikes® Tumble Train™
from
Little Tikes
An adorable train set that moves and tumbles, lights up and makes sounds? Yes please! The tracks can be arranged so they are winding, twisty, and fun! The Tumble Train moves and rolls all over encouraging kids to get up and get moving! It changes direction unpredictably and makes sounds. The tracks can be arranged in a more straight-forward train-track pattern, too.
Radio Flyer Customizable Scooter
$39.99
from
Radio Flyer
It’s super easy to create the scooter of your toddler’s dreams with Radio Flyer’s new Build-A-Scooter option. Parents can choose from one of four base colors for the scooter and add extras like light-up wheels, a bell, and streamers and even have their child’s name printed on the scooter itself!
Toniebox
We can attest that this totally genius music/story box has been a game-changer in our household. A toddler can easily entertain themselves for hours with this screen-free device — and the best part? They can totally set it up and increase and decrease the volume completely independently. Each “tonie” comes loaded with stories and songs that the child simply places on top of the box to play. And with new tonies out from favorite movies and shows like Paw Patrol, Moana, Llama Llama, and more, storytime can truly be endless.
Mini Cooper Ride-On Car
This may be the Santa (or parent) gift you’ve been looking for to really wow your toddler. This adorable mini Rollplay Mini Cooper comes with working headlights, horn, engine sounds, foot pedal and shifter so they can get racing at a whopping 2.5 mph. It can support a kid up to 77 pounds.
'The Creature of Habit' Book
This sweetly illustrated book tells the story of a Creature that lives on the Isle of Habit who is happy to do his daily routine over and over again until another little creature suddenly appears and turns his well-oiled world upside-down. It’s a great read aloud — especially for kids who have a harder time being flexible or have a fear of the unknown.
