I am interested in toys specifically that are to help creativity, imagination, and intelligence. I do not want the regular kid-calmers, child-pacifiers, tantrum-soothers. I want to know about toys that can help increase I.Q.'s in children.

DVDs: The Best of the Electric Company; Schoolhouse Rock (yes, really)
Easel and paint set, or any drawing or painting tools
Jigsaw puzzles - any puzzle is good, but if you go to a learning store they often have puzzles in the shape of the world or the United States, with the states being the pieces. I loved mine when I was a kid and it helped me with geography.
Board games, like maybe Monopoly or Clue that encourage you to use your brain. Cranium is AWESOME and fun. Mastermind was really challenging and teaches about patterns and deduction.
I'm sure I'll think of more as soon as I stop typing... Good luck!

We became the 0.33 mattress room right into a playroom, so quite some the toys are in there. in the front room, we've a shelf along with her books, puzzles, and a few toys. I have been given it at objective; it has 9 little cubbies, so it quite is optimal for a newborn. she will attain each thing and spot in to make certain what's in each cubby, as a replace of digging by a basket or field. Get toy storage you do no longer techniques finding at - a good shelf or some extra grownup finding baskets. Then it won't save in mind that there is toys in the front room.

I'm not a parent, when I read your question I thought about the LeapFrog line of products. I know they are quite popular, though most of the products involve using a video game like system, and I'm not sure if that'd be something you're interested in.
Something else I thought of (depending on the ages your children are) is the Baby Einstein collection. I've heard that is wonderful.
Good luck to you.

I have to agree with The Best of the Best of Electric Company. I remembered it from my childhood and bought it for my kids. They love it and I have an excuse to watch it again too :O)

Leapfrog makes great gifts just like that, starting as young as 6 months old. i have one for my baby that is like a doll and he teaches colours, counting, animals and speaks in french and english.
