We don't let Isaac have them. He has four categories of toys: matchbox cars, wooden toys (puzzles, blocks, etc), Playmobil (he calls them Little Guys), and Schleich animals. <br /><br />I cannot rave enough about Schleich animals! They are simply amazing. Love 'em, love 'em, LOVE 'EM! They tend to be on the expensive side, but collecting them (and in Isaac's case, making herds!) is a blast. We bought a huge lot of like 22 animals off of ebay for $50 for Isaac's second birthday, and it seriously has been the best investment in his toys we've ever made. He has yet to "break" one of these animals! He's named practically everyone that he has, and his little imagination just soars with them. <br /><br />Our cheap toys are very limited...yay! And good for you and your hubs for wanting only quality for Cole. Teaching him that quality is better than quantity early is 100% awesome. Good job Momma!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18382081217348597368noreply@blogger.com
