I CHOSE TO PRESENT ABOUT TOYS FOR TODDLERS

Toys are important for toddlers as It contributes to their development of cognitive, motor,
psychosocial, emotional, and linguistic skills. It also plays a key role in raising self-
confident, creative, and happy children.

TOY OF CHOICE– BALL

AGE GROUP—TODDLER (2-3 AGE GROUP)

Toddlers are becoming aware of the function of objects. They like to stack blocks, babble
into a toy phone, or drink from a “big-kid’ cup. The concept of pretend play starts now.

HOW THEY PLAY

Your little one might tuck a baby doll into bed at night or make “choo Choo” noises
while pushing a toy train.
This lays the groundwork for preschool play, when using the oven timer in a play kitchen
or ringing the bell in a pretend fire truck signifies your child growing understanding that each
item serves a purpose.

Your toddler also will begin to differentiate colors and shapes. So, choose toys that are
scribble with a crayon, and build towers four or more blocks tall. By age they can do simple
puzzles and pedal a tricycle.

SMART TOYS FOR TODDLERS

● BALL -Whether they are bounced, rolled, caught, or thrown, balls encourage gross motor
skills, hand-eye coordination, and dexterity.

● SHAPE-SORTING TOYS-pegboard puzzles, nesting cups or block, and buckets with


holes for different shaped blocks challenge hand-eye coordination and problem-solving
skills.

● MECHANICAL TOYS-pop-up toys and “busy” boxes with knobs, buttons, and levers
encourage fine motor skills and problem solving, and teach cause-and-effect.

● ROLE PLAY TOYS- play kitchen, doctor’s kits, and golf sets help children learn how
the world works by imitating the actions of you and other influential adults. Dolls and
stuffed animals encourage pretend play and aid social and emotional development by
teaching tots how to express emotions and take care of something they love.

DEVELOPMENT APPROPRIATENESS

All children can benefit from rolling, catching, kicking, dribbling, and tossing a ball- an
inexpensive, readily available, and versatile toy. Playing with balls improves kid’s motor
skills, hand-eye coordination, and timing, which are important parts of the developmental
progression of toddlers. The skills children learn by playing with balls will also be important
once they graduate to collaborative and competitive play.

CONCLUSION

A ball can be a unique and well-loved addition to your child’s playroom.


Besides the normal bumps and bruises that come with physical playtime your child isn’t in
any harm while playing with ball toys. If supervised correctly, your kids can have hours of
fun flopping around and throwing the soft plastic balls around.

When you choose a ball that best fits your child’s personality, they’re more likely to use it.
