My family has seen and played with so many different toys throughout the last four years but the only toys that have really lasted are the wooden toys from brands like Melissa and Doug, Haba and Hape. In fact, my four-year old still plays with some of the wooden toys she played with when she was a baby because they are still so fun to her.
Today, I wanted to give you a short list of our family’s must-have wooden toys and show you where you can buy them for much cheaper than stores like Target or boutiques. I’m talking cheaper than Marshall’s and TJ Maxx, too.
Check out our top five list:
