An easel-style sketchbook that stands up on a table so kids can "display" their drawings. It's a small thing that makes kids draw longer.
Honest drawback: It's just a sketchbook, so bring pencils.

Beautiful wood blocks in a modern palette. They look nice enough to leave out in the living room, which is half the battle for getting kids to play with blocks.
Honest drawback: Non-magnetic, so towers topple more easily than with Tegu's magnetic line. Some kids find that frustrating, others find it more satisfying.
Proper unit blocks, the kind every good preschool classroom has, made from reclaimed rubberwood. PlanToys says they use formaldehyde-free glue and water-based dyes.
Honest drawback: Fifty blocks is a starter set. Classrooms use hundreds.
A small travel tin of mini magnetic tiles that works on a tray table. It's a good budget pick for kids who already love tiles at home.
Honest drawback: The tiles are small. We'd keep them away from younger siblings who still mouth things, and count them back into the tin.
