I'm slowly adding to my preschool arsenal by buying a few staple toys that teach letters, numbers, colors, shapes, and fine motor skills. I love wooden toys for my kiddos and colors that aren't the usual bright, primary colors. Muted preschool toys are definitely hard to find, especially on Amazon, but here are a few things that I've appreciated.

1. Wooden Spelling Game - This is such an amazing set! I love the neutral wood look, and the spelling practice in game form is going to be so helpful!
2. Learning Numbers Cards - This numbers matching game is so fun! Plus, those wooden numbers can be used for SO many other activities! This is a great staple to have.
3. Learning Letters Cards - Same as above, but with letters!
4. Fine Motor Bee Hive - Break Apart Hive - Aren't these beehives the cutest? Your kiddo will practice fine motor skills and colors while playing this game. Plus, the tweezers are a much-used tool for so many other activities!
5. Fine Motor Bee Hive - Solid Hive - I included two different types of beehives depending on what style you like.
6. Counting & Shapes - Pastel - Ahh, the colors on this one! *happy sigh* And it's SUCH a great set! Wooden numbers your little one can hold, visual counting with the stacking rings, color practice, and it includes shapes. Just perfect!
7. Wooden Alphabet Puzzle - I just ordered this one for Aaron, and I'm loving it! I love how chunky the letters are to play with, and already new games of building towers and balancing letters on each other has started. Now so many alphabet activities have been unlocked having this puzzle set!
8. Wooden Numbers Puzzle - I definitely need to order this one next to do the same with his numbers! And I'm loving the colors on these two boards. So cheery without being the regular bold, rainbow colors.
9. Alphabet Cookie Cutters - These are so great when playing with play dough! Also, you can make cookies using them, trace the letters... so many options!
10. Alphabet Magnets - I love that this set has multiples of each letter! You can actually write out short words instead of only running through the alphabet. That'll come in really handy as we're working on sight words and rhyming words. Plus, the stand up white board, white board markers, and picture magnets are a really nice bonus!
