books, because there are great stories out there for toddlers and it helps bondage with child improve.
Everything around them is a learning toy.
I would suggest something that is big, brightly coloured and makes a little noise. It is easy for them to hold, put in their mouth, see and hear.
There are lots and lots of toys on the market. Anything with an alphabet is a brilliant idea. The earlier they get learning that the better they will succeed at school.
Don't just rely on toys though, the best person to teach them anything is you! Go down to thier level and play. Be imaginative. There is nothing more powerful than a childs imagination!!

Has a great selection of toys, all helping with some area of development.
http://www.leapfrog.com/do/findpage?pageKey=infant They have tons of great toys for all ages! My 3 year old daughter loves her leap pad/leap frog toys. They're a great alternative to putting a movie on, so mom can get some much needed alone time.

Lego is one of the best toys - it expands their imagination without restricting them. Just give them a few blocks and they will come up with brilliant ideas you couldn't have thought of.
Also try to give them a small piano/ keyboard or other musical instruments to experiment with. However noisy they may be, they help develop a baby's sense of rhythm.(If you are against the noise, you cn limit the time to 15-20 minutes each day).
Crayons and playdough help with fine and gross motor skills, apart from helping the child being creative . try buying a Magnadoodle if you are worrid about scribbling on the wall. A new toy called Aquadoodle (drawing with plain water filled pens on a special mat) is also very good and not messy at all.
Tea sets are really good toys, you can get sets for resonable prices and put pretend fruit and vegetables with it. The children learn social skills in as sharing with one another, sitting down and having a cup of tea together. Physical skills in how to hold a cup properly, use a pretend knife and fork.
the toddlers i look after go crazy every time i bring it out, its also a nice activity for them to sit down and talk to each other. The boys and girl toddlers both enjoy tea seats and there are many around that are just plain colours with no "girly" pattern on it.
Another one is Puzzles simple and easy, you have age guides on most puzzles and its a nice one for a child's intellectual development and fine motor skills.
I have a 3 1/2 year old and one at 18 months, they love nothing more than crayons, paints, modelling dough, empty cardboard boxes, books, loads of books, thing is you could spend a fortune on expensive toys, when really it's the simple things they learn most from. A washing up bowl and some fairy with a plastic tea set, let em wash up. Hamlynn do a good book called brain games for pre-schoolers, it has all kinds of things and games you can play with your little one, try the Mini IQ website for more details, that's where I got mine. Hope this helps.
The Baby Einstein range is very good, it then progresses to little Einstien and so on. Not only does it teach children things that most adults do not know it keeps the little one captivated, for the whole time no matter the age.
try this and have fun its free

My grandaughter loves playing in the garden.
She pulls weeds waters the garden and us if we don't keep an eye on her.
Plays mud pies.
We watch the ants give them crumbs and observe them carrying their load.
She is 3 next year we will buy her a little fruit tree and she can look after it and eat the fruit when it grows.
We sit on the swing chair and watch the sunset and the clouds.
She loves to play in the rain with her little coat and wellies on and her umbrella listening to the sound of the raindrops falling on it.listening to the different birds.
She gets a good dose of fresh air .
I spray the window with windex and she cleans it for me .
Sweeps the crumbs with dust broom and shovel.
I have a little apron which she sometimes wears and she loves it.
She has jig saw puzzles and play dough I give her cookie cutters and she makes animal shapes and loaves of bread for the animals with the play dough.
dress ups hand bags shoes pearls.
Books, books, books! Read to your toddler as much as possible. I did that with mine and she was reading by 4 yrs.
