Welcome to The Realist Play Kit for months 19-21

Now that your toddler is a year and a half old, there are so many new skills beginning to emerge: two-word phrases like “Mommy go?”, feeling (and demonstrating) a wider range of emotions, and a desire to help around the house. You may catch them singing to themselves, understanding much more of what you say, and paying closer attention to colors—even perhaps showing preferences.

The Realist Play Kit is packed full of just-right playthings and activities for your one-and-a-half-year-old. Among them is The Wooden Stacking Pegboard, a multi-dimensional building toy that combines stacking, fitting, balancing, pattern recognition, perseverance, and many more skills. This toy ages gracefully alongside your child as well, a great activity for older siblings and cousins and friends, who can find more and more challenges hidden within the pegs.

There’s tons more in the Realist, from animal matching to practice with pouring—and another exciting new puzzle—for you and your child to explore together, supported as always by our informative and research-based Play Guide.
