Two year olds are busy walking, running, perhaps even jumping. Big things are happening with gross motor skills. But what about fine motor? There are lots of toys on the market that focus on fine motor development. So many, in fact, that it can become overwhelming.

Many of them are classics that have been around for decades. Take a look and see if you have these in your toy collection!
