The Rocking Reader Chair starts out as a set of heavy-duty cardboard pieces you and your child assemble like a puzzle (don't worry, there are only eight pieces). Next, your Picasso can decorate it as she pleases - with paint, stamps, stickers or fabric, or decoupage pictures of her favorite characters. The finished work of art will support kids up to 40 or 50 pounds. (Storyopolis, $25, 1-800-95-TALES).
