What other toys do they like? My DD is a big fan of puzzles and, other than her doll and books, she is not really interested in any of the other toys we have (we have an older DS who came with a lot of toys). What does your young puzzle fiend enjoy playing with?

One of our friends told us it's their favorite game and he's (about 2.5y old) a little puzzle fanatic: http://www.amazon.de/dp/B005HAW754/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_GvBmxb137F7KB
We really enjoy it too.

How about a latch board or sorting toy?
-
@Pumuckl: We have a game very similar to that, I should try it with her.
@MrsSRS: We have a latch board and she can do them all pretty easily. A sorting toy could be new and different!
-
We've tried most of these!
-
@MrsSRS: oh wow, great list!
-
@lamariniere: We got some great hand me down toys when DS was 2!

This is another one that we really like and it has a puzzlely vibe to it: http://www.amazon.de/dp/B00497M53A/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_RJCmxb0Y8AK80

My 2.5 year old daughter loves puzzles and also loves matching games.
This Goodnight Moon one is her favorite by a landslide. There are cards with pictures from the games and the kid matches the pictures to the cards. You can play it as a game but she likes to just match them all up.

@Pumuckl: Oooh, I really like that one! Haba makes such great wooden puzzles.
@My Only Sunshine: cute, I've never seen that one.

My LO got these at around age 2 and really likes them:

And this is obviously a puzzle but it's cool because it's 3d and you can do it backwards:

@catlady: All very cool! We have a game quite similar to the 2nd link.

Puzzles makes me think she enjoys fine motor/manipulatives type of play--what about a Mr. Potato Head? We have this toy that lo loooves, sort of combining stacking and imaginative play, and the pieces fit together like pegs: http://www.amazon.com/Green-Toys-Bouquet-Arrangement-Playset/dp/B007BSXZZG

@lamariniere: My 2 year old is also a huge puzzle fiend! She also loves Magnatiles, Melissa and Doug Water Wow, MagnaDoodle, and whatever her older sister is playing with!
-
@nana87: wow! Never seen that one before, neat!
@Bluebonnet: we have magnadoodle and water wow and she does like both of them.
