A puzzle may be an ordinary toy you give your child to keep him busy.
But its’ benefits go far beyond that.
Research studies have shown that puzzles play a very important part in a toddler’s development.
It develops spatial skills, facilitates hand-eye coordination, increases creativity, enhances problem solving skills, accelerates fine motor development, boosts confidence and self-esteem and advances social skills.
The water pressure rocket toy by 4M is one of the fun educational toys you can buy. The kids loved it and we couldn’t believe how high the rocket went. Here’s…
Buying robot toys for toddlers doesn’t need to be a complicated affair 😊. You don’t need to go all fancy-schmancy or buy one with loads of functions to make a 2 or 3-year old happy.
Are you looking for cool, quick and easy science experiments to do at home with kids? Here are some experiments that we’ve tried and tested! More
Many of the materials for the experiments you can easily find in your kitchen cupboard (or at least, easy to find in a grocery store) – which is always a good thing.
Newborns don’t really need toys. Because they don’t see colors yet during the first few weeks, what they need are the warmth of your cuddles, the melody of your soft voice, lots of sustenance when needed and your constant loving presence.
At about 3 months, a few toys may come useful. At this time, provide toys that help in developing fine and gross motor skills as well as for sensory stimulation (although not too much or they might not go to sleep easily!).
Music is one of the things that a baby loves. The right music calms them, invigorates them and develops their senses.
There are many of these baby musical toys. On this list are a selected few which babies love to play with and are highly-rated by parents.
Music is like a pill to babies. Play a familiar song and you’ll see their faces light up, their bodies sway, their hands clap and often, their mood changes.
Researchers from Mcmaster University have discovered that infants who are exposed to music before they can walk or talk tend to smile more and communicate better. They also have a more sophisticated brain response to music.
Babies under 6 months don’t need a lot of toys. But musical toys for babies are ones of the best you can give. Make them or buy them. Sing to them as often as possible. Expose them to different genres. Give them the gift of music.
Child development experts have always claimed that stacking and nesting toys help with baby development.
This page features all the best stacking toys. Whether you want stacking boxes, or donut rings, or large and soft ones for 6-month-old babies, it’s featured here.
It even includes a couple of stackable wooden toys which look very posh and should last for many years to come. And of course, for parents who do not mind the sounds coming from electronic toys, we also feature three stacking toys with music on this page.
