The Best Gifts for 3-Year-Olds

When I’m shopping for a 3-year-old, I go for things that are unique, offbeat, and downright cool. I never want our gift to be the same thing every other parent is nabbing in the age-appropriate aisle of the toy store. Of course, I also keep in mind that at age 3, kids are getting into preschool territory. So, in addition to adorable fashion finds, I like toys, games, and books that will help them build their language skills, learn their letters, and more. With all that in mind, here are the best gifts for 3-year-olds. Oh yeah, and everything here can be purchased online; no trip to the store required!
