Aka... what toys rock and what toys are duds.
I thought I'd extend it to ANY toy... not just Christmas gifts. So... what toys do your kid have that are most played with? What toys totally bombed in the use category?
In our house:
Rocks:
- Cars, trucks, loaders, diggers... anything with wheels. More brownie points if it has a tow hook or trailer or can haul anything.
- Harmonica (who would have thought...)
- Mr. Potato Head
- Step 2 Kitchen
- Puzzles
- Books

As I was thinking about this I realized Ayla plays with most of her toys (or I've gotten rid of anything she didn't)....guess that's good! Or maybe it's just because she doesn't have that many, she has to spread the love! :)

- Fisher Price Loving Family Dollhouse & accessories
