When choosing a gift for a two year old take into account they are at a very curious stage and like toys or activities that really engage their minds.

This is a toy that will allow them to move around in an interesting way.  The fact that they are able to move around by their own effort will make this a very interesting toy for the two year old kids especially for a boy.  It also provides them with the necessary training that they need when they finally decide to take on the bicycle.

Puzzles

Party Theme Ideas

Planning for a unique and fun celebration for your child’s second birthday is lots of fun.( Unlike school-aged children who are pickier in selecting their party theme!) As long as the party is amusing and the flow is good, your child will enjoy it.  If you’d like to hold a party with a blast, there are a variety of 2nd birthday party themes and food suggestions that guarantee everyone will enjoy themselves and the birthday child will have a great time.

To start off, think of the developmental milestone of your child.  At age eighteen to twenty-four months, your child will be able to mingle with other children and move about anywhere. Instead of keeping the toys for himself, your child will be able to show them to his playmates and play with them together.  In this case, think of a place where the breakable things are out of reach from children and an area where it’s wide and grassy, like your lawn.  You may want to add a mini playground for your party by renting an inflatable bounce house and slides as they are colorful and safe for children to play.

After deciding the place, it’s time to think of a theme for your child.  2nd  birthday party themes are more on colors.  Two-year olds are not really picky when it comes to choosing a theme, however we do know that many children like jungle themes.  You can also base the theme according to your child’s gender.  If it’s a girl, you can have an all pink party theme with pink and white balloons. If it’s a boy however, you can plan for an action heroes’ theme, sports or cars theme.

Other popular 2nd birthday party themes are cartoon show- inspired such as Winnie the Pooh, Sesame Street, Blues Clues, the Avengers, Barbie, Pink poodle in Paris and Disney movies theme.
