What We Got Aryi For His Second Birthday 2024
April 19, 2024
I understand that this is a lot. Some people will think it is ridiculous and expensive, but I am extra. I love toys and bins and projects. I love books. This works for us.
Ocean Themed Birthday
We are doing an ocean themed birthday for Aryi. We are not having a party, but instead going on a trip. I think this will be more fun for him in the long run. We see other children a lot at various places we go during the week. Aryi loves to play with the other kids, and we see the same kids at the places we frequent. But, right now he doesn’t have any real friends. He is only 1 still. Because of this, the party would only be adults and people we know. We think a trip would be way more fun for him.
Knowledge Crate Ocean Create – Knowledge Crate – $39.99
I love knowledge crate boxes. They are geared towards preschool children, but Aryi can easily do most things with a little help from me. Anything he can not do yet, I have put in a bin for when he can do it. This way I will have a little collection of activities later. When we decided we were going to the beach, I knew I needed to buy this crate along with the busy bin. I love the animal information cards with matching figures. This is the thing I am most excited about. It is great for Montessori matching and teaching animal names. We are not quite ready for memorizing animal facts, but I can read the cards and Aryi will enjoy it and get something from it.
Knowledge Crate Ocean Busy Bin – Knowledge Crate – $39.99
The Knowledge crate has a companion busy bin. I love that this exists. We love a bin. Aryi can be entertained for hours. I am excited to bring this to the beach. I am planning for this and the books to be our main activities/playthings while in the hotel.
Beach toys
Of course, when going to the beach, you need beach toys.
Hello World Sharks Book – Amazon – $9.59
We have a large collection of Hello World books. Now that Aryi’s attention span is a little longer, he is starting to enjoy these books. Because we are going to the beach, I thought this sharks book would be fun. We have their ocean book, which I am also planning on bringing on the trip.
Ocean Anatomy Book – Amazon – $14.58
This is a book that I know will really grow with Aryi. At this point, I could probably read a few pages, we will look through the pictures. At some point, this book could be a great resource for early learning. I want to get all of the other Anatomy books as well. They have Wildlife, Nature, Food, and Farm Anatomy. These books are all beautiful with beautiful photos and a lot of information.
Ocean Anatomy Sticker Book – Amazon – $12.95
This sticker book is beautiful. I think it will be a fun little activity for Aryi if bored in our hotel or in the car. He really loves stickers.
The Big Book of Blue Book – Amazon – $17.36
Like the Ocean Anatomy book, this book is beautiful and will grow with Aryi.
Ari Arranges Everything Book – Amazon – $14.60
I saw this book a long time ago at the library. We checked it out. Aryi loved it. The kid has his name and does what he does, arranges everything. Aryi loves to stack and arrange things. I knew I wanted to buy it, but when. For Aryi’s second birthday. It seems as good a time as any.
Holztiger dog – Amazon – $17.94
Holztiger cat – Amazon – $10.99
I like to get Holztiger animals for holidays and birthdays. I want Aryi to have a collection one day. For his birthday this time around, I’m going with pets, a cat and a dog.
