Help with deciding which toys are still suitable for 2.5 year old - trying to declutter!

I'm trying to declutter a bit starting with toys but am not really sure what age some of them should be kept until. Dd is 2.5 and has had alot of her toys for ages, she seems pretty uninterested in them now. They are so nice though that I can't bring myself to get rid of them! Also new ones are so expensive so I want to make sure I've had my money's worth. Things I'm not sure if she's a bit old for now are:
Elc wooden peg puzzles, she does them easily now
Books with press buttons that make animal sounds, she's never been that keen
Baby musical instruments
An old cuddly iggle piggle that was ds's but she never watches the night garden
Pop up flap books

It would be helpful too if anyone could share what sort of things their 2.5 year old plays with now. I'm going to keep an eye out at car boot sales and on ebay but need to make some space first! Thanks
