Top Reasons For Renting vs. Buying New Toys
A special thanks to Pley for sponsoring today’s conversation! All opinions expressed are 100% my own.
I have three children and an entire playroom that is dedicated to just their toys. Every other month I go through their playroom and wean out any toys that they have either outgrown, lost interest, broken or flat out proclaim that they no longer like. There are so many toys I have regretted buying… which are mostly items that the kids just had to have and then got little no use once they had it. Then there is all the baby toys I am starting to get rid of now that my youngest has become a very active toddler. Many of her baby toys are practically brand new and I discovered bins of toys she never got around to playing with. There is much I have learned about toys over the pays 9.5 years of being a mom and have put together the top reasons for renting vs. buying new toys! I hope these tips are helpful to you and you learn from my mistakes in the journey of toy buying.
