10 Classic Toys You Need On Your Holiday Gift Lists
“What should I get my kid for Christmas?” “What toys do you recommend for speech/language development?” “Do you think my kid needs.....?” Early Intervention therapists get these questions every year during the holiday season.

Hopefully this gives you some fun, new toys to add to your kid's wish list or give you fresh ideas to play with toys you already have!
