The gals here at Kid Buy Products are going to take the rest of this week off to finish up all our last minute shopping and spend time with our families, but I wanted to share one last favorite with you just in case you're still looking for your last minute gifts: eeBoo Puzzle Pairs. I'd kind of forgotten about our Puzzle Pairs because Nadia has outgrown them, but over the weekend I got the opportunity to spend some really fantastic quality time with Isaac for the first time in a long time, and we pulled the Baby Animals puzzle out and played with it for a good 20 minutes, and he loved it! The pieces are easy enough for him to put together, and the puzzles are great for developing language skills in toddlers as well as really broadening their vocabulary. We also have the Opposites Simple Puzzle Pairs which Nadia got when she was closer to three, and she loved it just as much as the Baby Animals puzzle she loved at two. Yes, the recommended age is 3+ on all the puzzles, but I think there's a lot of educational value to be gained from as young as 20 months or so.
I'm thinking about running out for a last-minute purchase of either the Rhyming Words Puzzle Pairs or the Simple Words Puzzle Pairs. I've sold a few extra things on Craigslist the last couple of days! If not, both are on Nadia's wishlist to remind when I need a gift idea for her next year!
I used to spend a bunch of time putting the puzzles back together and storing them in their respective boxes after we finished playing which was tricky because they have to fit in just right. Now I store them in those nifty Snap 'n Stack containers I raved about last week. It makes picking up SO much quicker, and Nadia can do the Opposites Puzzle while Isaac finishes his Animal Babies puzzle, but I only have to get out one box!
You can buy eeBoo Puzzle Pairs at many specialty toy stores. I would call ahead, just to be certain. And, at under $20, Puzzle Pairs are perfect for just about any toddler or preschooler on your list!
