Perfect Children's Birthday Presents

Today is my daughter's 5th birthday, so I thought it would be appropriate to talk about my favorite gifts.

In our house we have a strict "no toys that make noise" rule. It's occasionally broken by the grandparents and great-grandparents, but at least I'm not listening to endless beeping and unbelievably annoying music. My children can use their imaginations and voices and make plenty of noise on their own, thank you:)

Other than art supplies in pre-packaged gift bags, my other favorite gift is a book-toy combination present.

I love to give an Angelina Ballerina book with a ballet tutu as a third birthday gift for a little girl. The perfect combination of something fun and something that will still encourage reading. I used the tutu as a stand-in for tissue paper.



I also like Make Way For Ducklings with a rubber ducky, or  Pat the Bunny with a stuffed bunny for a baby.

If You Give a Mouse a Cookie with mini chef utensils, If You Give a Pig a Pancake with pancake mix...

This particular three year old princess party asked guests to dress up.



and one more picture since it is my daughter's birthday!
