Every parent understands the unique sound of children at play: the giggles, the sing-song voices, the inevitable “Look, Mom!” as they show off their latest masterpiece or invention. It’s those moments that remind us how magical childhood can be—and how quickly it all rushes by. At Rooms For A Prince and Princess (RPP Kids), we’ve curated a Toys collection that taps into this sense of wonder, helping kids immerse themselves in imaginative worlds and creative exploration. From the coziest plushies for naptime cuddles to sticker sets that let them decorate everything in sight (with your permission, of course), our selections aim to meet your child at every stage of play.
Playtime Essentials for Growing Minds
Think about the sheer amount of learning and growth that happens when children engage in free play. It’s not just about keeping them busy; it’s about fostering creativity, problem-solving skills, and even empathy. Whether they’re pretending to run a café with toy dishes or creating a whimsical castle out of blocks, play is where they try out new ideas, roles, and emotions. At RPP Kids, we look for toys that encourage these sorts of leaps in imagination—pieces that aren’t locked into one specific “right” way to play but invite children to dream up all sorts of new possibilities.
Of course, no two kids are exactly alike. One child might be happy spending an hour dressing up plush animals in tiny outfits, while another is all about constructing elaborate sticker scenes on a poster board. Our hope is that, by offering a broad mix, you can find something that resonates with your little one’s interests, whether they’re a budding artist, a future veterinarian, or simply a kid who loves to cuddle.
Cuddly Companions: Plushies to Love
Plush toys hold a special place in many children’s hearts. They’re often the first “friends” our little ones bond with outside the family. We’ve seen how comforting a soft teddy bear or a squishy unicorn can be, especially during bedtime routines or in moments of uncertainty—like the first day of preschool or a night away from home. That’s why we’ve stocked plushies that combine adorable designs with child-friendly materials.
Many of our plush friends feature ultra-soft fabrics and embroidered details (which means fewer choking hazards for babies and toddlers). Whether your child is snuggling up with a classic teddy or a whimsical creature like a glittery dragon, these stuffies can become loyal sidekicks through all kinds of childhood adventures. And really, is there anything sweeter than peeking into your kid’s room and seeing them sound asleep, hugging their cherished plush companion?
Stickers for Creative Expression (and a Hint of Organized Chaos)
Let’s talk stickers—they might just be the unsung heroes of low-maintenance fun. One sheet of stickers can keep kids entertained for ages, and it’s a fairly mess-free craft (aside from the odd sticker found on the living room floor). Plus, stickers can be a fantastic way for children to show off their personality. They decorate notebooks, lunchboxes, and sometimes even Dad’s laptop—turning everyday objects into personalized canvases.
For the parent who’s cringing at the thought of random stickers all over the house, we feel you. One trick is to designate a specific “sticker zone”—maybe a simple sketchpad or even a large poster taped to the wall. This turns sticker play into a mini art project, where they’re free to create collages or stories scene by scene. Many of the sticker sets at RPP Kids come with themes—like farm animals, outer space, or fashion—so your child can dive into a world they love most. And if a few stray stickers end up on the furniture, well, there’s usually a fairly easy fix with warm water and gentle scrubbing. Life with kids is never spotless, right?
Open-Ended Play: Fuel for the Imagination
Some of the best memories are born from toys that don’t tell children exactly what to do—like building blocks, simple figurines, and dress-up sets. We call these “open-ended” because they encourage kids to come up with their own storylines. A set of wooden blocks can transform into a pirate ship, a city skyline, or a magical forest. Figurines might play out a veterinarian clinic scene one day and a family picnic the next.
We love these types of toys because they evolve with your child’s interests. What starts as a basic stacking exercise for a toddler can turn into a towering architectural feat for an older sibling. That means fewer toss-outs and more long-term use—always a plus for busy parents watching their budget and trying to minimize clutter. And of course, open-ended toys tend to be wonderful for multi-age play; siblings or friends at different developmental stages can find common ground while playing side by side.
Safety First, Always
We understand how important it is to trust the items your children engage with every day. That’s why the toys we bring into RPP Kids undergo a selection process focused on both fun and safety. We look for brands that adhere to or surpass child safety guidelines, using non-toxic paints, secure stitching, and rounded edges. If it’s a product we wouldn’t feel comfortable handing to our own kids, we won’t recommend it for yours.
Still, it’s worth noting that even the most well-designed toy requires a bit of parental supervision—especially when younger children are involved. Reading age guidelines and keeping small pieces away from toddlers can go a long way toward preventing mishaps. And if you’re ever uncertain about a particular toy’s suitability for your child, we’re here to answer questions, provide more detail, or recommend alternatives better suited to their developmental stage.
The Joy of a Curated Collection
One of the privileges of parenthood is watching your child discover new interests as they grow. Sometimes it can feel like whiplash—last week it was all dinosaurs, this week they can’t stop talking about space travel. That’s part of the beauty of stocking a variety of toys. When you have a small collection of items that cater to different facets of your child’s curiosity, it becomes easier to adapt to those sudden shifts. Maybe they’ll dig out their old sticker sets to decorate a homemade planet poster, or line up plushies to act as potential dinosaur meal…there’s no telling where a child’s imagination might roam!
Of course, we also know that clutter is real, and we’re mindful that homes only have so much storage. That’s why we opt for pieces that are built to last, either through durability or sheer replay value. High-quality plushies, open-ended building sets, or thematically rich sticker packs can remain favorites for years if chosen wisely.

We love hearing from other parents, swapping stories, and helping each other find those little things that brighten up daily life.
Because Childhood Should Be Fun (and Maybe a Little Silly)
There’s a lot of seriousness in the world, and we can’t always shield our kids from every bump in the road. But what we can do is nurture their sense of play. By surrounding them with toys that spark creativity, comfort, and joy, we’re giving them tools to process the world and express themselves. Watching them make up silly voices for their stuffed animals or design an entire sticker city on a spare piece of poster board—it’s a reminder that sometimes, all we need is a bit of imagination and laughter to get through the day.
So take a look at our plushies, stickers, and other fun playthings at RPP Kids. Let your little one pick out a new friend or two. Because every morning they wake up full of energy and curiosity, ready to turn the living room into a kingdom or the backyard into a dinosaur habitat—and we want to be right there, fueling that spark. After all, these precious years of wonder should be cherished, and a few good toys can make them all the more memorable.
