Sparkz Racerz
Rev the wheels, watch the sparks, and let this chunky car race on down the track (your kitchen floor). It's perfect for tiny hands and packs a nice punch, considering it doesn't need batteries. ($5, The Little Tikes Company) Buy it

Shake a Face
Your child will get a kick out of the funny pictures painted on each of these cute wooden instruments. Choose from cymbals, knockers, maracas, and more. ($5, Alex) Buy it

Crayola Color Wonder Finger Paint and Coloring Book
It's a mess-free finger-paint set that's invisible on everything except its special pad of paper. Just have your child rub the paint with her fingers, rub it on the paper, and watch the pictures appear! ($10, Crayola) Buy it

Tub Tunes Water Flutes
Beethoven's "Ode to Joy" never sounded sweeter than in the tub! "Tune" each of the flutes by filling them with water, then let your child make beautiful music by following the notes on one of the five waterproof music sheets. ($10, Right Brain) Buy it
