One of the things that I miss about that job was the toys we had. It seems whenever I go shopping for toys I always find junk toys. Junk plastic toys that make noise and require batteries, but do not require much thought or imagination. That's why I am always excited when I find new websites like Ultra Quirky Tot. This website has some great toys that reminds me of things the kids used to play with when I was a teacher.
The have great manipulatives, which are great for fine motor and problem solving skills. This was one of my favorites
They also have great blocks. Blocks are such a versatile toy and must have for any kid.
This website really had some great toys that were just like the toys we used to teach with when I was a preschool teachers. I will definitely be using this website when Christmas rolls around to stock Ben and Penny up on some nice learning toys that they will grow with instead of the junk toys that will out grow and break with in a month.
So check it out! They also have tons of cute clothes and all kinds of stuff for little ones!

What a great resource- I totally agree with you, that most toys are cheap and end up breaking! I love wooden toys- thanks for posting.
