Toys For 3 to 5 Year Olds

It can be too challenging to find the perfect toys for 3- to 5-year-olds. They are at an age where they are beginning to outgrow some of their toys from when they were younger, but they are not quite ready for more complex toys.

3 Important Considerations When Buying Toys for Kids Ages 3 to 5

Here are tips to help you make the best purchase for your child:

1. Type of Toy

When shopping for a toy for your kids' ages 3 to 5, consider what type of toy it is.

There are three main types of toys:

  • Active toys are things like balls and tricycles - anything that gets your child up and moving.
  • Constructive toys are blocks and Lincoln Logs - anything that lets your child build something.
  • Imagined play toys are things like dolls and dress-up clothes - anything that lets your child use their imagination.

Most children benefit from having a mix of all three types of toys in their collection.

2. Age-Appropriate Toys

You do not want to get a toy that is too advanced or too simple for your child.

If a toy is too advanced, they may become frustrated and give up on it quickly. If it's too simple, they may get bored of it quickly as well.

The best bet is to find something just right for their age and stage of development - physically, mentally, and emotionally:

  • Physical development is important at this age as your child becomes more active and mobile. Look for toys that encourage physical activity, such as balls, bikes, trikes, and scooters. These toys will help your child develop gross motor skills as well as balance and coordination.  
  • Mental development is also key during the preschool years as your child's cognitive skills begin to take shape. Look for toys that encourage creativity and imagination, such as building blocks, puzzles, art supplies, and pretend play sets. These toys will help your child develop problem-solving skills, fine motor skills, and language skills.   
  • Emotional development is another important aspect of childhood development. At this age, children begin to understand and express their emotions more complexly. Look for toys that encourage social interaction, such as dolls, stuffed animals, and board games. These toys will help your child develop empathy, communication, and cooperation skills.

3. Think About Their Interests

If you can't decide on what toy to buy, consider your child's interests.

It is important to have a basic understanding of your child's interests. What kind of things does your kids like to do? Do they like to be active or stay stationary? Do they prefer to play with other kids or alone?

Once you have a good idea of your child's interests, you can start looking for toys that will resonate with them. For example, if your little one is very active, you might want to consider toys that will encourage them to move around, such as a trampoline or a set of plastic balls. If your child prefers solitary play, then you might look for toys that they can use to engage their imagination, such as dolls or action figures.

By taking the time to determine and understand your child's interests, you will be able to find the perfect toy for them.

Whatever toys you choose for your 3- to 5-year-olds, make sure to select ones that are safe and appropriate for their age group. With the right toys, your child will have hours of fun.
