Summary:

This is not your conventional toy and app review. I will name a few that I love (not sponsored), however, I want to give you a framework to help you choose them on your own!

First, I review what play should look like in our homes. Open-ended and self-directed play is the best!

I review some of our favorite toy companies and give you a list of TYPES of items and toys you can include in your home.

If you need more help with this, I have my Play and Brain Development course. It has TONS of play ideas using everyday items and also explains how this is helping your child build cognitive skills.
