Top 10 Gifts for Preschoolers

Round Xylophone – Tinocchio, $26.00

• Why I Love It:  Eco-friendly and kid-safe.  Encourages music learning and motor skills, too!  Plus, it’s handmade, and I love supporting artisans in business.

Kindle Fire HD with FreeTime – Amazon, $139.00, $2.99 per month

• Why I Love It:  Allows kids access to tons of awesome educational apps and ebooks, but time and content limitations can be easily set by parents.

Peek-A-Boo Rainbow Family – Apple n Amos, $25.00
