Playing is one of the best ways for kiddos to build important skills! If you’re looking for some amazing deals on toys and activities for your children (Christmas in July?), Target is a great place to look. Target Deal Days is an online only sale that ends tomorrow, July 13th, and you definitely need to check it out! Even if you miss the sale, these are still great toys to keep in mind for birthdays and holidays.

Hogg Therapy Pediatrics does not recieve anything from Target for purchases made from this blog post. This is simply a list compiled for the benefit of parents and caregivers. :)
