Children at this age are learning really fast about socialising, playing with others and sharing so look for toys that encourage the child to interact with others. Play tea-set toys from Alex, kettles and kitchens are of interest to children and he or she will make you a cup of tea, be warned one is never enough, you will be required to drink plenty. The playdoh set provides the child with the opportunity to do some cooking; you will be served with an endless supply of colourfully shaped cookies to go with your tea. A child’s own space is really important at this age; they would probably love an outdoor cubby house. This is not always possible depending on where the family lives. A solution to this is the Bazoongi Play Structures. Bazoongi design fabulous cottages & tents for children. Hours can go by as the little people enjoy playing house. Children at this age also need challenging with developmental play; puzzles can play a role in this development. Our large variety of wooden puzzles, jigsaws, and silhouette puzzles to suit this age bracket provide an activity that the two of you can do together. Two to three year olds will still be interested in playing with blocks and shapes. The Brainy Baby, books, DVD’s and flash cards can be effective educational products at this age. 

 

It is also import to remember the physical motor skills – a safe trampoline will encourage children to develop their balance and instil confidence in their ability. However, having a trampoline is not always and option, so in this case you need to look for toys that encourage gross motor skills & balancing ability. Hopscotch is a great game to aid this type of development and in today’s modern world you can buy vinyl hopscotch that makes noises as children hop and jump on the squares, visit games to see one.
