Dear Marianne: My husband and I have 2 daughters ages 3 and 5. They have so many toys and it's hard for me to get rid of them because so many of them are from family and friends but it's overwhelming! I think they have too many toys-do you have any suggestions of how many toys a kid plays with in a day and how many do they really need? I don't remember having so many toys as a child-just a few favorites. Then it's hard to get them to clean up b/c I think it overwhelms them. What do you think?

These are suggested for women who live in warm climates.
The velcro closure provides an easy adjustment to getting
the shoe on/ off. The flat support without a wedge or
heel makes it easy and comfortable for pregnant women.
When tested, these were found to be the most comfortable
for outdoor use.
I enjoy hearing from
our readers. If you
ever have a comment,
question or concern,
please email me at

Thanks for caring
about our children.

Toy Tips to Parents: Time to Unplug
Don't over stuff the toy box with tech toys. When is technology too much technology?
While tech toys are popular and some can be educational, the latest round of newcomers at Toy Fair makes it clear we're going too far into technology assisted play.

Parents run the risk of stocking the playroom with items that undermine the important developmental aspects of childhood play.
