I think it's the perfect balance of toys that are cute as well as fun! Whether you're shopping for nieces/nephews, grandkids or your own kids or even your children's friends these items are great bargains and here's why I like them...

• Pop-Up Ocean book-- this little palm-sized book is perfect to toss in the diaper bag and take along anywhere. The colorful, fun illustrations are great for the younger audience. Also makes a great stocking stuffer! Ideal age range: 18 months to 3 years

• Neon Leon book-- another darling book that's full of fun illustrations and a cute little story. Ideal age range: 4-8 years

• Bop & Drop Ball Tower-- Even though this is more of a baby toy, my older kids still love stuff like this! It's colorful and keeps your little ones busy while they learn & play, which is one of the best kinds of toys in my opinion! Such a great deal too. Ideal age range: 12 months- 3 years

• Crocodile Xylophone-- this classic is such a fun learning toy that's another popular one around here-- no matter the age! I love the cute, colorful design and that it's another toy kids can be creative with and develop an early appreciation for music. Plus, it also doubles as a pull toy! Ideal age range: 18 months- 5 years

• Snuggle Tails-- Okay, so I got these for my kids last Christmas and they're such a hit! Think sleeping bag meets throw blanket-- the perfect size for kids! Plus, you can look like you're a mermaid or that you're in a sharks mouth, which is a major victory when you're a kid (haha!). These are perfect for cozying up to watch TV or those Christmas movies we'll soon have on repeat around here! The snuggle tails come in all sorts of styles/colors and the price point is great in my opinion. My kids just love theirs and use them even more than I expected. Ideal age range: 3 years- 10 years

• Fox Backpack-- I'm a sucker for mini backpacks and have noticed my kids are too! They are always filling bags full of random treasures and toting them around. This fox face backpack is so cute and such a deal. Ideal age range: 3 years- 8 years

• Wooden Circus Playset-- I just saw this recently and thought it was so cute! I love wood toys and this one is colorful and unique. I think my kids would have lots of fun with it. Ideal age range: 18 months- 4 years

• Uni the Unicorn Book-- When I saw this book I just knew I had to order it for my daughter! It's such a fun one that every little unicorn lover will adore! Great price too. Ideal age range: 3 years- 7 years

• The Wonderful Things You Will Be book-- Another cute book that has a great message about the possibilities for our children's futures and the unconditional love we have for them. Such a cute one! 3 years- 7 years

• Natural Wood Blocks-- As I mentioned earlier, I love wood toys! I think wood blocks are such a staple for children's imaginations and development. This is a great deal on a simple set of blocks that can bring hours of entertainment and creativity! Ideal age range: 2 years- 10 years
