Let’s face it, when babies sleep better, parents sleep better. The adorable Sleep Sheep by Cloud B attaches to the side of baby’s sleeping area and plays four soothing sounds: Mothers Heartbeat, Spring Showers, Ocean Surf, and Whale Songs. Winner of several industry awards, including the National Parenting Council’s Seal of Approval and the iParenting Media Award, the Sleep Sheep is plush and very cuddly, so it immediately gives a restless child something cuddly and calming to hold on to. The Sleep Sheep creates a kind of white noise that blocks out the other surrounding sounds, so babies can be lulled into sleep. Check out all the great reviews this soother has been getting! A Win-Win for baby and for mom and dad!

Ride On Toys are great for babies that are not yet walking, but also great for learning and encouraging how to walk, as well as, entertaining well into the toddler years too! We got the Pooh 3-in-1 Rock ‘N Ride, and my kids love it! There’s no end to the fun your little one can have with a ride on toy! Many Go from rocker to push-along stroller to ride-on toy. There is a safety shield that goes around the seat and offers extra comfort and security. Great toy for inside or outside! There are also great ride on toys that you can push and your little one can enjoy the ride while you take a walk. These are great toys and keep in mind, one of the few toys your child will have that will last a very long time and be enjoyed by your little one for several years.

Last Christmas my daughter received this Chicco: Music ‘N Play Table and it’s been a favorite still to this day. I would highly recommend this toy because it teaches so many motor skills and its a great toy to grow alongside of your baby as they enter into the toddler years. If your baby is not yet walking, this is a great height to learn how to pull up on and stay interested in standing and playing with all the fun things. The electronic multi-function musical table features an electronic piano with flashing lights that plays music notes, recorded melodies, four instruments sounds and a rhythm control function. The piano can be detached and fastened to baby’s crib. The table also features an activity center with forest animal and other fun sound effects. Turned over, the tabletop becomes a base on which to build with the included (10) blocks. A great toy and a great gift!
