Toys for Mavi

I'm gonna post this so I can get this off my mind.

I've been bugging the husband since last week that we should be getting Maverick a decent toy.  We've been getting him books, but no toys.  Poor boy.  Every child needs a toy, something that they can enjoy and play everyday.  He has toys, but look at them, he can't figure out how to use them yet! Those are lego blocks which his Dad has brought him like three months ago.  He just kept on biting them, and throwing them everywhere.

If we were in Bacolod, I would have bought him tons of toys already hehehe.  Toys are so cheap there.  But just be careful when buying toys for kids.  Always check the appropriate age for the toy, and if it's made of some dangerous chemicals.  Dito, we always check if it's made in C.Some toys here are made locally.  We usually get him either a Fisher Price or a Playskool or local brands as well.  We are considering getting him wooden toys, compared to plastic.  But goodness, they price difference is waaaay too much.

Look at him, since he has no toys to play with, the boy became very creative hahaha.  He plays with all our trash!  Take this plastic bottle for example.  He loves that.  Every single day, during his play time yan ang bitbit nya lagi.

Mavi needs a toy, a good one that enhance his motor skills. We were supposed to get it this weekend,but due to a bad weather, we weren't able to make it to this huge toy shop, just a few blocks away from our place.

This morning, I searched the net for some ideas on what  to get Mavi, and here's SOME of my pick.

POMPOM

I am liking this multi-colored pompoms.  I can use this for Mavi during our study the colors activity.  Since this would probably be made up of yarns, it's pretty safe. But of course, he'll only use this with my supervision.

BUTTON CHIPS

I wanted to train Mavi develop the "transfer the object" thingy. Wherein, I'll laid out some small objects, and will instruct him to transfer that object from one place to another.  I'm thinking of using buttons, colorful buttons.

WOODEN BEAD MAZE

I so heart thisssss!!! I hope we could find something like this here.  My son will totally love this toy! 

SHAPE SORTER

Another colorful and fun toy for Maverick.  If we can find something like this, he'll be trained how to sort shapes.  Haaay, I am so drooling!

And here's the rest of the toys I wanted to get him:  Alphabet blocks, Electric Piano with Animals popping, and a Magnetic Drawing Board for doodling.

Haaay.
