Month 15 Must-Haves



It seems like once your kiddo turns one, there isn't a ton of change in the toys getting played with or the stuff we find useful as parents. It also seems like, after the fifteen month mark, it's time to get a bunch of new stuff! I'm looking forward to puzzles, a water table, and I'm planning to DIY a rock box. But that's all for the next must-haves list. Here's our list for months 13 thru 15:

1. Activity Walker: Z got this as a Christmas gift, but wasn't quite ready for it until a couple of months later. Now, she'll but random stuff in the little basket and walk the thing all over the place. The activities on the front are fun, too!
2. Sandals: Once the weather started warming up a few months back, I began the search for some cute and sturdy sandals that didn't cost a billion dollars. I love, love Saltwater Sandals, but for this age, I just didn't want to shell out the bucks. Maybe when she's older. That's why I was super excited to find these at the Children's Place. They're way cute and have a nice thick rubber sole. Perfect for a kid who wants to do nothing but walk all. day. long.
3. Snack Cups: These snack cups are great and they seriously reduce the numbers of Cheerios loose in the car seat.
4. Hug Time is definitely on Z's Most Often Requested list. It's gotta have the cutest illustrations ever, and is probably the only children's book to mention a gnu.  Baby Woof Woof! has pictures of different baby animals, not just dogs like the title suggests, but Z goes crazy for the dachshund puppy on the first page every time!
5. Ball Ramp: We love this one! The balls have "sprinkles" in them that Z likes to shake before she drops them in the ramp. She also likes to pull off the top level and carry it around. No clue why.
6. Stacking Bowls: These guys have made the must-haves list before, but lately, Z is actually stacking them and putting them together as balls. It's pretty cool to see her rediscover old toys as she grows.
