Top Toys that Grow from Baby to Toddler

Writer: Nicole RomellNicole Romell


Hi guys! Todays post is going to be about the top toys I recommend to grow with you through your baby and toddler years. All these toys have been used by my daughter Avery since she was a baby to now, she is 2.5 and still loving them! This could be a great list for someone who is trying to have less toys maybe because of space, is trying to find toys that are a good bang for your buck or maybe you just have no idea where to start shopping! I hope this list is helpful for you and you get some ideas. We personally decided to focus on toys that would last longer than just a couple months and also would help educate and increase our daughters imagination. Okay so here are my top recommended toys!



This little wooden fruit set is so adorable and great for teaching little ones how to put pieces back together, matching and also creativity for when they get a little older! This has always been a favorite of my daughters and she still loves it and she is 2.5! She would love cutting the fruit and then piecing them back together and pretending to eat them :) I love that this toy is a toy that will last for a longer time since it is wooden. It also comes with a crate to hold all the fruit in which I appreciate for toy organization.





Baby Stella is so adorable and cuddly! I specifically liked her because she was soft and would be a great doll to cuddle up to. I also loved that she came with a pacifier, bottle, tiny bear and also a removable outfit! This doll is a great first doll and comes with a variety of accessories to go along with her! We also have the stroller and love it!






This stacking toy not only looks good in our playroom, but is also a great educational/fun toy! It helps teach them shapes, colors and different sizes. Avery still hasn't mastered this toy, but she has a lot of fun stacking them and taking them on and off.





This is another wooden toy that is one of Avery’s most used toys. She has from a young age loved trying to figure out how to fit the different shapes into the corresponding homes. Avery was the sort of baby that loved anything to do with sorting so if your baby is the same way this toy might be great for you! I love that there is an option for them to just put the pieces into it easily if they can’t figure out how to get the shape into the correct hole. You just simply move the string to the side and place them in.





These cars are soft and really fun to play with! Avery loves when we pull them back and let them go fast all across our living room and kitchen floors! We even get our dog involved sometimes and she thinks it is hilarious! These are just a great classic toy and you don't have to worry about them damaging anything because they are padded :)




I love this little egg set! Can you tell we love educational/fun toys at our house! Avery loves them too! She loved dumping all these out onto the floor and trying to put them back into the egg carton when she was a baby. We would then show her how they go back together correctly, but now that she is older she can match them all up and put them away!






Avery is a big fan of this summer food set and so am I! I love that the ice cream magnetically sticks to the cone which makes for some fun play time! It also comes with a cute carton to store them in and some ice cream scoops which are just too cute! We have had a lot of laughs with this toy!





These are great stacking cups! I love these because we have used them in so many ways..for the bath, sandbox, pool and her water table to name a few. Plus you can connect all the cups together to make a caterpillar which is just different from other stacking cups I have seen out there!





These are one of Avery’s top toys! We gave her these for her second Christmas and she plays with them them the most of all of her toys! She loves taking care of the two of them and it is just too sweet seeing her being sweet a sweet mama to them.




We also gave Avery this Little Tikes Car for her second Christmas! This is a great active toy to keep in the house or be used for outside. We loved taking her for rides around our kitchen and living room when she was younger and now that she is bit older we leave it outside on our back patio and she uses it just as much! I think every little one needs one of these!







This is also a toy that Avery has loved from age 1 to 2.5 and will probably love until she is 3. She loves the little radio and the songs that it plays, she also loves the fact that she can sit in it and pretend to be driving, it’s so cute! It even comes with some shapes and balls that you can put into the corresponding spots! This one is a must have!





So there you have it! Those are my top recommended baby to toddler toys that will grow with your little ones. I hope you guys found this post helpful and that maybe it gave you some ideas of toys to get your baby or toddler. We have loved all of them and would recommend them to friends and family. Thanks so much for reading!
