I was really just wondering what you guys do, when it is time to buy toys for your kids, or other peoples kids. Do you frequent flea markets, do you search online, do you hit wal-mart, or do you use one of the lovely ladies from Kidsmart or a similar Home Based Business?? Let me know your thoughts!

kids toys are so expensive.till now ,i used to buy only stuffed toys but now as they have become slighty bigger,they have their specific requirements.usually we hit a toy store,tell the kids my budget and let them do the choosing.

Have you considered thrift shops or online classifieds they can save you a load of money. Especially the classifieds, I got 315 pieces of duplo blocks for 30$. Mega blocks in wal-mart for a 50 pieces set was almost that much.

I have a toddler son who is disabled. I buy toys from shops in towns near me and off the Internet. One of the best things I have bought him is a soft and durable play mat. I have purchased wooden bricks, balls, musical instruments and toy cars. He has special needs toys and ones for children slightly younger than him.

Ususlly I would hit for the mall for toy stores like Toy 'R Us and stuffs like that. And I always make sure that the toys are according to the right age group for the child and also educational. It's good to learn while playing. Besides that I always make sure that teh toys have safety features built in.

You can let the children choose, or buy some toys which can practice their brain.
