#ad 🎂MY TOP 3 BIRTHDAY GIFTS FOR TODDLERS 🎁 // Birthday gifts and living in a small NYC apartment don’t really go together. My rule is any toy entering our house has to pass my test! To cut down on the guesswork, I start by shopping on @potterybarnkids, and then ask myself these questions: ✨Will he play with the toy everyday, and use it for years? ✨Does it promote learning or pretend play? ✨If it’s furniture, is it GREENGUARD Gold Certified? ALWAYS if it’s at Pottery Barn Kids. ✨And duh...is it aesthetically pleasing? ⭐️ Bonus if there’s built-in storage! 👇🏼Here are my top 3 gifts that are perfect for toddlers (even older kids TBH!) 🎁1. CHELSEA ALL-IN-1 KITCHEN I’ve been eyeing this STUNNING kitchen for over a year now, and was so excited that it was more compact than I thought. I love all the little food - omg the little ravioli and colander??! Teddy loves it and there’s tons of storage. 🎁2. TOWN AND COUNTRY WOODEN TRAIN SET Teddy literally goes to sleep, and wakes UP asking to go on the subway, so it was time for a train set! The minute he gets home from daycare, he runs to play with it. He loves the magnetic train and moving all the pieces around the track. 🎁3. THE CAROLINA ACTIVITY TABLE Anyone else sick of tripping over their kid’s toys? When I saw this sunken in activity table, and matching Carolina Activity Carts that fit perfectly underneath, I knew it was perfect for his train set and books! I love that it can grow with him, and be used for anything - crafts, school projects, even eating! You can buy Leg Sets to make the table higher as your child grows. 🎈BIRTHDAY PARTY DECOR When decorating Teddy’s “Two Fast, Two Curious” theme birthday party, I knew we HAD to incorporate some of Pottery Barn Kids’ retro ride-on cars and airplanes. They were the hit of the day, the kids were OBSESSED. Their Minted® Vroom Wall Art, 3d Activity Town Play Rug, and Pom Pom Round Rugs were the chicest way to dress up the blank space! 🧁BIRTHDAY CLUB P.S.
