Money, money, money — do kids like playing bank? The invention of plastic cell phones and mini laptops were somewhat expected, but the Summit ATM ($30) caught me by surprise. Tots can play drive–through, only instead of just sitting pretty, this box of plastic is actually a working bank. Kids can store their dollars and coins while the machine keeps tabs of the amount.

While I try not to judge a book by its cover, which is available in green, pink or blue, the lovely binding declaring it "Chloe's Alphabet Book" makes it irrésistible.
You may not want to let your wee one play guitars and drive them old trucks quite yet, but there's no harm in dressing up your lil dogie in absurdly cute western wear.
The cowboy theme thermal onesie from Bees and Dragons ($51) is complete with horseshoe adorned feet and stitched stars along the backside. Who needs lil doctors and lawyer outfits when a get up like this will make the ranch girls shout, "Giddy up!"
