9. Minikane Baby Doll $48 You remember your first doll for your whole life. This one is sweet and special and worthy of the filling the role of constant companion. They have a bunch of different ethnicities, too. Polly got this one a couple years ago and still talks to her every day.

17. Squeezamals $18 Our four-year-old has this fun, squishy play food and not only does she invite us to her "restaurant" in the playroom, but she also likes to bring the plush sandwich to lunch — showing off her "favorite food." Also, anything "surprise" is in, but this is actually a surprise toy that can easily transition into other activities, like the play kitchen.
