A bright red fire truck he can ride on. Really. (With NYFD on it.)

Answer 10

First, don't limit yourself to toy recommendations. Look for books, in particular, as I believe great children's books have a more profound and lasting impact on children than most toys do. I've added a short list below. I'd avoid electronic toys like the plague. The American Academy of Pediatrics counsels adults to set strict limits on children's access to TV, movies, DVD/video and computer & video games, especially toddlers.

If you're set on buying toys, I recommend purchasing DUPLO toys from LEGO Systems Inc. LEGO makes a wide range of toys for tots—and kids at heart like me. Check out the second link below for some product ideas from LEGO Shop. One of the great things about LEGO toys is that they are adaptable. They can be fitted to regular LEGO pieces as a child outgrows DUPLO sets. I know because I still have DUPLO blocks and I've mixed them with traditional LEGO toys when building with my four-year old nephew.

Some other toys you should consider include trains. My nephew loves Thomas & Friends and he has the complete LEGO DUPLO set, as well as many pieces from the wooden railway sets, which he's owned since he was two. BRIO and Eichhorn also make great train sets and the tracks are interchangeable with Thomas & Friends wooden railway systems.

Other toys I advise you to consider are plastic Bob the Builder toys, wooden Jay Jay the Jet Plane toys, dinosaur replicas from Safari, Bullyland, Papo or Schleich or plush reptiles from Wild Republic, which makes uncommon stuffed animals. I've added links below to various sites. As a man, an uncle to a four-year-old boy, an elementary school librarian, and a volunteer reader for the Denver Public Library and the Children's Museum of Denver, I think I have a pretty good handle on what two-year-old boys like.

As promised, here are some of my favorite books for toddlers:

"Goodnight Moon" by Margaret Wise Brown and Clement Hurd
"The Runaway Bunny" by Margaret Wise Brown and Clement Hurd
"Jamberry" by Bruce Degen
"The Going-to-Bed Book" by Sandra Boynton
"Barnyard Dance" by Sandra Boynton
"But Not the Hippopotamus” by Sandra Boynton
"Oh My Oh My Oh Dinosaurs!" by Sandra Boynton (Honestly, you can't go wrong with a Boynton book)
"The Very Hungry Caterpillar" by Eric Carle
"Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?" by Eric Carle
"Chicka Chicka Boom Boom" by Bill Martin Jr., Jon Archambault & Lois Ehlert
"Black on White" by Tana Hoban (like Boynton, you can't go wrong with Hoban)
"White on Black" by Tana Hoban
"One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish" by Dr. Seuss
"It Looked Like Spilt Milk" by Charles G. Shaw
"Where the Wild Things Are" by Maurice Sendak
"Go Away, Big Green Monster" by Ed Emberly
"One Red Dot" by David A. Carter
"The Napping House" by Audrey Wood and Don Wood
"Good Night, Gorilla" by Peggy Rathmann
"Guess How Much I Love You" by Sam McBratney and Anita Jeram

At this age you should look for books with lots of rhyme and repetition--not exclusively, but keep this idea in mind when you're at the book store or library. And remember to talk to a children's librarian. She can make other recommendations that I haven't listed here. And please visit Jim Trelease's web site. The sixth edition of his wonderful book, "The Read-Aloud Handbook," has now been released. He is a huge advocate for reading aloud to children and presents many reasons why it is so critical that we keep reading to our children. He also includes a terrific treasury of books that he considers great stories for reading aloud. Cheers!
