I don’t know what it is about the Skwish from Manhattan Toy that babies (and toddlers) love. My triplets received this toy as a gift when they were born. Once they were able to start holding toys, we gave them the Skwish along with some other baby toys. To be honest, I was nervous […]

My youngest just turned 2 (that’s right, I have no babies anymore!), and some good friends of ours gifted him this Playskool Wheel Pals Triple Track Tower. It’s listed for age 18 months and up, and I think it’s a great choice as a gift for a 2 year old.
