The ideal gift can be hard to find, but when shopping for a toddler, it should be both educational and entertaining. Parents will love a quality toy that encourages motor skills and counting, while the tiny tots will enjoy the lights, music, and interactive feature of many toys.

By the time your little one is 2 years old, they're most likely getting more excited about sorting colors and shapes and playing with friends. She might even be running around, kicking balls and throwing things — being a toddler is exhausting, after all! When shopping for toys for 2-year-old boys and girls, be sure to pick products that match their interests but still help them learn something new. For example: if they always want to watch mom and dad cook, they'll love a pretend grill so they can "make" food and work on their fine motor skills.
