25 Days of Gifts—#2

For the hip baby: Fred's XYZ blocks are stylish, hilarious, and, yet, can still be considered a learning tool. (I already have a set waiting for my new babes.) These are the kind of blocks you don't mind seeing scattered on your floor. Blocks include illustrations of corn dogs, dentures, and the uvula. Around $30—locally at Red Tree or online at target.com. —JED
