"Open Minded" toy ideas for toddlers

Open Minded toys are ones that help kids use their imagination. I really want Willa to use her imagination when it comes to toys. I'm trying my best to be more thoughtful when purchasing her toys. I want them to teach her to imagine, create, practice skills, and learn. I want her to be able to entertain herself and not have the toys entertain her. This doesn't mean all her toys are "open minded" believe me I have a tablet for those desperate times and other toys that do the entertaining. However, I think it so easy to shop for those. Its the toys that do more then just be a toy are the ones I think are harder to shop for. So here is my list of open minded toys for toddlers that make great gifts! These toys will also grow with your child, which I love!

Toy Closet Organization

Here a quick and easy update for the dreaded toys we all have piling up in one room in our house (or multiple haha) We have this tiny hall closet under our stairs. I thought it would be perfect for Willa's toys to be hidden away when we didn't want them out laying all over the house. Currently we have her little play area set up down stairs, so she goes into this closet and pulls out all her toys when she want to play. Eventually, the play room will be moved upstairs, but I'm waiting until she's a little bit older.
