Mastermind Toys, Canada’s largest specialty toy retailer, has put together an amazing 40-page Gift Guide featuring gifts ideas for every kind of kid on your list.   I love looking through the Mastermind Toys Gift Guide, it is full of amazing toys I have not seen anywhere else and easily represents the kind of selection you can expect from Mastermind Toys.

Some great items in the Gift Guide include  Hydro Sound Water Speakers – Ages 8+ ($34.99),  Stiga Snow Kick – Ages 8+ ($59.99),  Circuit Board RC Skateboard – Ages 8+ ($19.99 – $49.99),  Indoor Snowball Shield Set – Ages 6+ ($24.99)  and the Pirates’ Den or Royal Princess Play Tent – Ages 3+ ($29.99).

If you are near one of their 32 locations across Canada it is definitely worth it to head in store for a little extra help by their friendly staff with picking out the perfect gift for each little one you need to shop for.  

We were sent the B. Baa Baa Barn, featured in the Hit List, to check out with the girls.  I already knew it would be a hit with them and I wasn’t disappointed.

I’ve actually been looking at a few different farm/barn toys for the girls but when I saw this one on Mastermind I fell in love.  It has so many incredible interactive features there was no way I could resist.  It is meant for kids 1 and up which is perfect since Ava is turning one next week and Keira turns three in January.  I love having toys around they can both play with and learn to share.

Ava’s favourite part of the barn are the two balls that can be dropped down a ramp int he silo.  One ball has little ears of corn and the other has little beads inside.    She mostly loves clacking them together but they do make their way down the silo every now and then.  Keira loves placing the four included animals, a sheep, a cow, a pig and a horse, through the barn doors to make them play their respective songs with animal sounds. 

There is literally a surprise at every turn, including the handy handle that allows your child to carry it around everywhere.  Guys, I feel like this barn literally follows us from room to room.  Keira won’t let it out of her sight!  This is seriously an A+ toy and I would definitely buyt it again if I had to.

  1. I would get a Spot It! Alphabet Disney Frozen Game, a Ty Beanie Babies 8” Frozen Olaf Snowman Plush and a set of LEGO® Disney Princess Rapunzel’s Creativity Tower

  2. I have to say I would definitely buy the barn. It is one thing I loved to watch my older two play with and this is much cuter and more colourful than other brands. I think Bella would enjoy it just as much as your little ones do!

  3. I would buy another 6 ft. X 3 ft keyboard mat for my granddaughter. I already purchased one for a gift and it was such a huge sucess! They loved it and said it was “so cool”!

  4. If I won the Mastermind $100 gift card, I would buy LeapPad games for his LeapPad Ultra that we purchased for him for Christmas this year!

  5. Some Playmobil playsets (especially dino ones). We got my son a playmobil advent calendar this year and he loves it…so he wants some more lol

  6. The B. Baa Baa Barn would be a hit with my granddaughter so I would buy that and some clothes for the Corolle Doll.

  7. I’d buy the Kendama. I’ve been looking everywhere for this since the one I bought in Japan broke, but couldn’t find a store anywhere in Canada that sold it . . until Mastermind Toys!

  8. My youngest son wants some Star Wars Lego. A large walker of some sort so the gift card will be really appreciated!!

  9. Oh my goodness, I could look at the toys for ages. I think that I would probably get him the Playmobil Take Along Animal Clinic as he loves to play doctor for us and our furbabies.
