Vehicles and construction toys encourage both gross and fine motor skills development as well as adding imaginative play. Blocks are a classic toy still enjoyed today. Water play is fun, so tub toys help make the bath experience enjoyable. Ring or shape-stacking toys are good for hours of play. What an exciting time for kids these years are.
Kids take joy in exploring and are learning concepts.
The more we involve their senses in the process the more concrete the experience is, making learning easier. Physical toys are important at this stage. Ring toss games and ball toss activity centres are great fun, and vehicles continue to please. Of course, a place to run, jump, climb, and swing is a necessity. Creative toys are as much fun to buy or make as they are for kids play with.
