Toddler Learning Toys

Advertisements

Toddler learning toys are just what you need for your son or daughter that is one year old to four years. This age range becomes even more fun to choose the right gift for than the infant or baby age of the past. Children this age love to play with and are stimulated by what are called manipulative toys. A manipulative toy is a plaything a child plays with when they stack, push, pull, open, close, or fit with some other pieces in some way. A basic manipulative plaything is building blocks. Not all manipulatives are suitable for all toddler ages, so be sure to check the toy packaging for age recommendations. Some toddler playthings are more suitable for a child once they have turned eighteen months or two years, for example.

Some more examples of manipulative toys that toddlers love are shapes that are sorted into holes, simple wooden puzzles, a toy on wheels with a string for pulling, a jack-in-the-box, a play xylophone, lacing toys and those bead mazes found in every pediatrician's office. There are also many sophisticated battery-operated toys that will make noises, music or light up as a toddler pushes buttons, turns dials or opens doors. All of these types of toys are excellent for emerging physical motor skills and intellectual development.

Toddler learning toys should also include some objects that encourage the use of the imagination. Some examples of toys that stimulate the imagination are dolls, make-believe farm sets and play animals, puppets, play food, toddler-appropriate action figures, model cars and trucks. They also make doll houses for older toddlers. Some toys serve dual purposes as a manipulative and an imaginative toy. A pretend telephone can have buttons or dials that make noise to interact with, but a child can also imagine talking on the telephone to their grandmother.

Toddlers are not too young to begin learning some things they need to know for school. Things that teach colors, shapes, the alphabet, numbers, counting and information in an entertaining way are all good for this age. Though not strictly a toy, do not discount the value of books and games for toddlers and children as a way to stimulate learning in your child.

Parents can take the lead in helping their child to get the most out of their toys. Although a toy should safely entertain a child without much adult supervision, a parent can encourage a child to sing, hop, dance, and in other ways, try out all the activities that can be performed with their new toy. When a parent will sit and play with their child or take their hand in romping about the room, or guide them in a beginning arts and crafts kit, a special thing can happen for the child and the parent.
