Another "What Would You Buy" Question :)

[Josiegirl]

I have about $350 to spend through Lakeshore, towards materials for 3ish and under.
Is there anything on your wishlist for that age group? I'd like to steer away from plastic.
I love having money to spend but then there are so many options, I have a hard time choosing things.
Thanks so much for any suggestions!!

I recently had some grant money to spend and decided to buy things that would make my day with my group easier. My group now consists of mostly high energy boys who love sports. When I had some money, I ordered a Lakeshore basketball hoop, and some other preschool sports equipment for outside. Now they really get their energy out when we play outside and are more engaged inside.

In short, I would think about the group you have now and purchase durable toys/equipment that will engage them. Maybe dramatic play clothes or furniture if you have a creative group. Outdoor equipment if you have a busy groupm

You're right. My problem stems from wanting things for the kids without thinking if that's where their interest lies. That's why I've bought so many fails, things that sit on the shelves.
Hmmm, my dcks love art and crafts so going to shop those items. Thanks for helping!

I would get the wooden lakeshore fire station if they still have it. I also love the blocks that have household pictures on them, like a window, fridge, etc. I think they are LS. I want both of those,

I had those blocks on my list of everything I wanted to get but had to whittle it back down because evidently my eyes were bigger than my grant money amount. But yes, I love those blocks!
