I am terrible! I still have not done Christmas shopping for my own 16 month old. I've racked my brain to try to find a good gift for him. I could use some gift ideas for (& where to buy) a boy who seems to be most enjoying playing with and stacking pillows and boxes. I thought about looking for some huge blocks (lightweight enough not to hurt him but sturdy enough to stand up to a toddler). He doesn't really seem interested in those Duplo Legos. Or where can I find small to mid-size bean-bags? Sorry for this rambling, email full of run-ons but I am out of time and out of ideas!
Hi D.~
If you are interested in those big cardboard box blocks that look like bricks, I just saw them at Toys R Us this week. My kids have always loved them and they are great for your little ones age group. They were in their "imaginarium" section. They also sell them at Learning express in Southlake.
Enjoy your holiday!

Bean bags are a snap to make. Buy pinto beans and sew up any piece of cloth. Old clothes will do!
I was a preschool teacher for over 15 years and Lakeshore is a great place to go for things like that.
