These small animals are great for imaginative play time for kids 3 and up. Which will be our kid!
You can find them online or they are sold at many toy stores. I found these at the Texas Art Supplies on montrose.
Price tag: depends on how many you get. Each animal is between $3 and $7

Car Seat(s)
We may be given a car seat by the organization when the child comes to live with us. However, we will need a second car seat to have one in each car.
We won't have any specifics on what kind of car seat we will need until our child arrives.
