2. A drum set to kickstart their future rock star career. They can explore music, letters, animal sounds, or simply make noise with their own version of 'All The Small Things.'
Promising review: "My 3-year-old son received this for his birthday, and he absolutely loves it!

3. A T-ball stand to help develop your little one's hand-eye coordination and encourage active play. It includes a bat and two balls — who knows, they might hit their first home run sooner than you think.
Promising review: "My son just turned 3 and will start T-ball in a few months, so we got him this set for practice. It’s been perfect for him. He’s a tall boy, and the lowest tee setting works just right. I really appreciate that everything clicks together for easy storage, keeping the balls from rolling all over the place, and that it can hang on the wall when not in use. I store it in the garage. He’ll likely get years of use out of it... probably until he's about 6 or 7, given the tallest setting." —MommyZ13

Highly recommended review: "I have a 3-year-old and a 5-year-old, and these building blocks are the perfect entertainment for both. My younger one mostly enjoys knocking over the towers his older sister builds, but he's also starting to learn stacking and inserting rods. I appreciate the variety of colors, shapes, and sizes. The material is wonderful for young children as it's safe, even when they throw the pieces around. Finding toys that are both safe and encourage creativity is not always easy. This set offers both, so I plan on purchasing a second set so my daughter can continue building her 'kingdom.'" —sylvia
