Christmas is coming up and I have a 2.5 girl and 7 month old boy. I am trying to figure out what would be some good gifts to get them.
Answer
I agree,the busy ball popper is pretty cool.The only thing about it is that for toddlers,if they have toys they stick down in it it is VERY easy for them to get stuck.My cousin had one(but this was 6 years ago,they haven't changed much)but you always had to struggle to get blocks and other small toys out!

Toddlers coming in the house. What do I buy?
Considerab
Ok well we are fostering and we are soon getting two boys(ages two and three). PS-I am going to be their "sister". I'm 13. Anywho...what type of beds do we need to buy? What types of toys? What else do we need to purchase before these two children enter our home? Ex. high chair or booster seat? crib or "big boy beds"? ECT...

Also:
What types of food do you recommend if they have no food allergies? Are you sure the two year old is ready for a "big boy bed" or is a crib ok? These children see their mom once a week and were dropped off by their grandfather. I don't know how mature they are for their age.
I noticed one of you said potty training. We haven't met them... we don't know if they are potty trained or not. We assume neither of them are because of their family situation.
Answer
I have two year old twins (they need speech therapy you just answered my question). They have toddler beds. My son has a super cool car bed and my daughter has a super cool princess canopy bed. They have had these beds since they were about 14 months old. At 2 and 3 those boys would be able to climb out of a crib and they would get hurt from the fall to the ground. So they NEED a toddler bed. Toddler beds are made for toddlers.
As for foods they should be able to eat anything that you eat. My kids are 2 and they eat anything I cook. Whatever I cook for my husband and I they get as well. My son's favorite food is green beans and my daughter's favorite food is chicken nuggets. But they can eat anything. Some things need to be cut up for them. But they can eat anything. Just make sure to give plenty of fruit and veggies. They need a balanced meal. And they are still growing and will need lots of milk. At that age doctors will suggest that you give them whole cow's milk unless they are overweight or they are allergic. The fat in the whole milk is very very important for brain development.
As for toys you will need several toys. They will need the ones that are electronic and make noise and sounds and are meant to teach the children something like the ABC's or colors. They will also need things like blocks so that they learn to be imaginative. And lots and lots of books. At that age they should also be able to color on paper so the large crayons that are made for toddler and lots of paper.
One thing I didn't notice you mention was a teaching potty. Chances are the 3 year old is potty trained but a 2 year old might not be. You may need a teaching potty.
