Classic Sock Monkey Toy

This is the Classic Sock Monkey that seems to be everywhere in all the toy stores right now. I can’t explain why this is so popular, but I have to admit, that we have one and my toddlers love it. Apparently this sock monkey has a timeless appeal to it that kids love. Recommended for kids 12 months old and up — but really, can you ever be too young or too old to appreciate a sock monkey?

You may not be aware of all the variety of sock monkey related toys that are available. Here is a visual list of some of the best.

Crayola Crayon Maker

The new Crayola Crayon Maker is “melting” its way to the top of the best seller lists for the 2009 holiday season. This new toy from Crayola allows kids age 8 years old and up to melt and create their own unique swirl colored mini crayons.

This toy will require adult supervision and a little patience to create the crayons, but for kids who love crafts and experimenting, this could be a winner.
