On the List ~ Indoor Energy Burners

From now until Christmas, I am featuring our all time favorite toys! I always love getting recommendations to get the Christmas gift idea lists to the grandparents in plenty of time! That’s why I am starting early this year with some individual toy features. I will update our gift recommendation posts {tot, preschool, boys, moms, Jesus} for 2013 and publish those in November, but wanted to get started with these features of our favorites now. I will feature 10 different gift ideas between now and Dec 21, every Saturday. Last week I featured Straws & Connectors!

Indoor energy burning toys are a MUST in my home. We live in the inner city and our backyard is small. All 3 of our children need an outlet to blow off physical energy, especially my Krash. I wrote an extensive post, Blessed with Boundless Energy, sharing all about him and how we help him manage his high energy level.

We own many indoor energy burners and have a few on our own list for the kids this year to add to our collection. This category is kind of like books for me, we can’t have enough! We often use our items to set up a simple indoor obstacle course. We have a corner in our schoolroom where we keep it all so it is easy to get to and USE!

What’s on OUR List This Year?

We already purchased a few gifts for our kids for Christmas, thanks to Zulily! I was able to use some credit to get both of these items for free! {I am linking to them on Amazon, since the sale on Zulily is over}

Waliki the Jumping Bull ~ Ladybug saw this in a catalog and BEGGED for the bouncy horsey! About a week later it was on Zulily and I ordered her a purple one! The weight limit is up to 150 pounds for this one, so I am pretty certain the boys will have fun with it too!
