Preschoolers are ready to take on a new type of play. Toys for kids this age encourage imaginative and creative activities with role-playing and pretend play. They provide opportunities for active play, get kids to exercise, and capture their spirit of adventure.

Toys in this age group should help teach vocabulary and social skills and result in a sense of accomplishment. View the skill key.
