[quote=Anonymous]No, there is really no polite way to tell people what to buy your kids. If they ask for suggestions, offer experiences, like trips to the theater, museum memberships, classes in something the kid wants to do, etc. Or suggest items that fit in with stuff you already have--play food for a play kitchen, art supplies, etc. And while I'm not thrilled with the plastic crap, I agree with the PPs who noted that (1) it's great to have a box of stuff ready for a rainy day, and (2) the cheap toys have their place in imaginative play.
