I mean, c’mon, have you ever seen a cuter stuffed animal in your life? It also makes for a great piece of windowsill decor in any nursery!

The cutest sidewalk chalk... ever, perhaps?

Made from BPA-, PVC-, and Phthalate-free plastic, this stacking toy will help them learn their colors and develop fine motor skills.

Firetrucks are a fascinating discovery in the life of most two-year-olds, so this press and listen book with five different sound chips is sure to be a hit.

This rainy-day activity encourages exploration (around the house!) and helps build their vocabulary. "This has been so fun to go through with our toddler every weekend. We get some laughs out of it, and it's something to do that's not screen related," one reviewer says.

This picture book details the challenges and confusion that come with adoption in a way that's touching, sensitive, and educational. While it might be a bit advanced for the two-year-old in your life, it's never too early to start incorporating important stories like this one into their nighttime routine (and they'll marvel over the gorgeous illustrations).

How about giving the gift of baby's first piggy bank?!

Let their imagination run wild with this bath toy set, which comes with a water jug and a floating unicorn.

Make bath time a blast with these fizzy droplets that come in four fragrances: strawberry, tangerine, honeydew, and vanilla. They’re made from 100 percent natural ingredients that’ll leave baby's skin feeling super soft and hydrated.

This handmade toy is machine-washable and 100 percent organic, which makes it an ideal stuffed animal for toddlers.

Chances are, your favorite two-year-old's parents think their baby is growing up way too fast—so this adorable growth chart is something they'll cherish forever.

This drawing board lets them doodle away without wasting paper (or, ya know, staining the table with markers), thanks to the convenient sliding eraser.

You can't go wrong with a new outfit that's super cute, comfy, and warm. Reviewers love the fact that it features an oversize design their toddler can grow into over time.

What's not to love about a personalized picture book? And each letter corresponds with a positive character trait (B is for Brave, for example), which makes it even sweeter.

Soft, sustainable, and safe for baby, this rash guard is made from recycled swim knit that dries fast and blocks 97 percent of harmful UVA/UVB rays. Plus, the zip up front makes it easy to get on and off.

These adorable mice are perfect for on-the-go play, thanks to their matchbox bed that doubles up as a convenient carrier.

Made from buttery soft, hypoallergenic, and naturally cooling, this blanket is available in 28 different patterns that are bound to spark their interest—from giraffes and dinosaurs to rainbows and eucalyptus flowers.
