Little Passports is an adventure subscription-plan for kids age 3+. Every month (you can pick a plan that runs as long or as short as you'd like), the recipient receives a package in the mail filled with fun and educational activities, games, and projects. We ordered a 3-month subscription for our daughter when she was 3.5 years old, and she loved opening her special package that came in the mail each month! Over a year later, the colorful map of the world that she got in one of her packages is still being utilized... By BOTH of our kids! Little Passports: Subscriptions start at $11.95/month (save 60% on the first month of any subscription using the code SAVE60, November 21st-27th, 2016) |
These personalized children's books by the Minnesota company "I See Me!" have been a favorite of ours since our oldest child was an infant.

Our oldest child received this B. Toys "Par Rum Pum Pum" drum and instrument set for her first birthday, and five years later BOTH of our kids are still playing with it. B. Toys are found at Target, and it's one of my favorite toy brands, as they're at a reasonable price-point for the quality of products that you're buying. Parrum Pum Pum: Target, $21.99 |
Our 5-year-old received three of these Photicular books from our cousins recently, and she loves them. So does our 1-year-old!
