Choose Open-Ended Over Single-Use

The best toys have multiple uses and grow with the child:

  • Excellent Choices: Wooden blocks, magnetic tiles, art supplies, play dough, dress-up bins, simple dollhouses/vehicle sets.
  • Why They Work: These encourage creativity, problem-solving, and extended play. A set of blocks can be a tower, a road, or an imaginary castle – their use evolves with the child’s imagination.
