Cut it out! This is the perfect toy for any aspiring chef!

As Froot Loop grew into preschooler age, his dexterity and curiosity grew too. One of his favorite things to do is to help me in the kitchen. He has a set of nylon knives that he LOVES to cut up soft foods with. Since he loves this so much, we bought him the Melissa and Doug cutting food set.

He's a Lego Maniac! Did you know there's Lego sets JUST for Preschoolers?

Well, it's official. I have a child old enough to play with real, actual Legos, and not the (still fun) Duplo or Megablocks. Lego has fairly recently come out with these JUNIOR sets, which are fully functional Lego pieces, but instead of having 16 little tiny pieces making up the body of a motorcycle, it's just one complete piece, making it easier for beginning Lego Maniacs!

Cuppy-Cakes: Cupcakes + Shapes + Colors = Learning Made Fun (& Delicious!)

Froot Loop found a set of play cupcakes at my parents’ house that I had as a kid. It’s a set of 4 cupcakes with 4 different colored frosting tops. There’s also a cute tray that the cupcakes sit in. Basically, all you do is put the different cupcake tops on the cupcakes and put them in and take them out of the cupcake tray, but it was one of my favorite things to play with and now it’s his too!
