Good Luck Friends! This is perfect timing right before Christmas to win some toys! Can’t wait to hear what your favorites are too, there are so many!
I would love ANYTHING Melissa and Doug. I love their wooden puzzles and their food boxes.
I had my kids help me a little with the wish list… considering they are the ones wishing for everything lately (hope Santa got there emails… anyhoo) the wish list: My son, Riley who is 3 loved the tree house, he especially wants the little boy to come with it. He said, “mom, can I play with him” sure son. Maybe he doesn’t get out enough… yikes! Then my 11 month old little girl pretty much helped my typing skills, slobberine on everything and squeeling with delight when the other kids got so excited about the toys. I pick for her the soft plush stacking rings. Then there is the 7 year old girl… Keagan, he wants the painting easel, the make your own princess puppets, and the swirl and spin art fun (I talked her into that one.. I remember loving mine as a kid) So there is the wish list. I could go on, but I am not sure how many characters I am allowed. Thanks, as always for the giveaway, and for the website. Looks like Christmas shopping just got a little easier!
I blogged about the giveaway.

So many amazing toys! My particular favorites were the Melissa and Doug Velcro slice-able fruits, veggies and breads. I also liked the puzzles.
My son would love their giant plush elephant. My daughter would love the Princess Elise magnetic doll set. Cute site! I am a follower of your site, too. It was private, but I switched it to public now. :o)
Lincoln Logs is classic. I would not only love them for my son, but for him and my husband to play with together. My husband talks about them from his childhood all the time.
I like the table top puppet theater
Ooh I love everything. The woodman diy kits look cool and i always love any melissa and doug toy.
I LOVE all the of the Melissa and Doug magnetic toys and their travel games. I got my daughter the travel memory game in the hospital gift shop and it is the perfect toy to take along to all of her hospitalizations and doctors visits. They are all easy to sanitize and easy to keep the pieces together!
I agree with you the grocery store and groceries are
the cutest. Although the architectural blocks are pretty neat too.
The Tumble Tree Timbers Building Logs set is my favorite thing! My son would LOVE it for Christmas… Thank you!

There are too many toys to choose from!! I love the 3 little pigs plush set and the Noah’s Ark shape sorter. Both are so fun! And for my crafty kindergarten niece I would choose the make your own princess puppet kit and the wooden princess castle for.

I love this site, and the toys on that site are great – so hard to choose! Since I have a 7 month old, I would the EverEarth activity walker and push toy. She is starting to pull up, andthat would be great forher to use. There are about a million other toys on there that I loved, but that is one of them.
I love the activity walker. Perfect for my newborn in a few months. I am purchasing it for Christmas. I love all the wooden toys!
I absolutely love all the Melissa & Doug Pretend Food Play toys.
It makes me want to be six all over again! My play stove and refigerator were my favorite toys when I was little, I now love to cook as an adult, hence why I read your blog! 🙂 I hope I can help my children develop this same love for cooking with toys like these. That Grocery Store/Lemonade Stand is just adorable! Oh to be a kid again!!!!

Here’s some specifics:
5pc jumbo arts and crafts kit
Shape, Model and Mold Play Dough Set
Finger Paint Set with Artist’s Smock
Whee!
The games are my favorite. My grandkids love to play games and I am always looking for something different.
