My Soft World Farm Set
Imagine our surprise when we picked up these “wooden” blocks only to discover they were made of foam! Perfect for the bath, the animal and barn pieces stick to tub walls to create a farm scene and float in water for a new construction twist. Deceptively clever!
$20. Available at Sears.

Stainless Steel Dish Set
Introduce your little one to new foods on dishware all their own. We love the butterfly and gecko designs, the dishwasher safety and most of all the durability. Pull baby up to the table for dinner this holiday season and let the inevitable plate-tossing begin!
$44. Available through Nayla Natural Care

Tea Set
Sure, baby may not understand the concept of a tea party at this age, but this hand-knit tea set is perfect for any type of play. And it’s so darn pretty, we don’t mind using it as room decor until baby is ready to serve.
$50. Available through Little Footprints

Jumbo Fun on the Farm Stacker
Bigger is better, at least as far as this stacking toy is concerned. A pig, lamb, cow and hen made of different textured fabrics can be layered atop one another but can -- and will -- be used as separate stuffed animals as baby grows. A fun addition to any playroom, with Pottery Barn’s signature charm.
$99. Available at Pottery Barn
