“Rattles for smaller kids. I had a lot of those,” Conrad says. “Early on, when I started buying toys for Liam, you definitely want to do lots of colors and you want to have fun pieces, but you also want things that are pretty in your home because they slowly take over.”
“I really liked all of those pieces because I felt like they were perfect during the age, but I also didn’t mind them finding their way into my living room because they’re all so cute.”
