Which Toys

OK so am having a complete rejig of all my toys and currently have 5 mindees all aged 15 months to three years. I now have space for up to 20 boxes and was wondering what toys you would provide.

I also have soft play and a ball pit accessible at all times as well as outdoor toys but as I only have one room downstairs I want to reclaim most of my house.

What are your popular ones for that age don't want to limit choices too much but need to pack more away. I won't throw the others yet but want to have less choice so toys only rotated once a month or so.

7:little people
8:animals
9:cuddly toys
10:colouring equipment
11:arts & crafts
12:books
13:wooden blocks
14: Vehicles

Then double up on popular toys do you think these are ok. Trainset, block, cars and dolls seem to be current favourites

Treasure basket/natural resources?

2 of mine are 3 now and I'm investing in more science-y things to extend their investigations - jumbo magnifiers, scales/balance, safety mirrors, colour mixing paddles, magnet kit, big tweezers (last is more fine motor, but you get the idea).

Also, different kinds of blocks are popular - so window/mirror/colour/noisy popular.

Any help?
