We're not a big toy family. DD3 has soooo many toys (pretty much all from Granny), and she really only plays with the blocks, the dolls, the puzzles (occasionally), and the play food (which is mostly imaginary). And of course art supplies. And books, books, books. Oh, and a few simple musical instruments.
I am actually very, very often on the verge of giving all her toys away. I am so tired of seeing them all just sitting there taking up space. So my advice is to stick to the basics. Often a stick and a bunch of leaves is the best toy a kid can have.
