Learn Cause and Effect Relationships
Educational toys that help to develop cause and effect relationships for 3 year old kids are those that allow children to see the consequences of their actions. For example, toys such as shape sorters, where children can fit different shapes into corresponding holes, can help children understand that certain actions (e.g. placing the shape into the hole) have specific outcomes (e.g. the shape fits and stays inside the hole). Other toys that can help with cause and effect development include toy pianos, where pressing a key creates a sound, and toy cars, where pushing a button makes the car move. These types of toys can be especially beneficial for young children as they begin to understand that their actions can produce specific results.

While babies may benefit from educational toys, most research shows that the greatest benefits of early childhood education stem from the development of a child ‘s social, emotional and physical skills. By exposing children to activities that target these areas, a child’s intellectual development is also likely to follow. As infants grow older, they tend to develop a stronger sense of self-awareness and they learn how their own bodies work. This leads into a period when babies learn about cause and effect relationships. Some 3-year-olds are able to understand that they have the power to make things happen – like putting blocks into a box or making an action figure move. Educational toys for this age group should be geared toward these specific types of activities.

Introduce Social Skills
By the time a child is 3, they should be learning how to interact with others and develop relationships. Learning with or from other people leads to positive social development because children are able to see adults behaving in certain ways and then model their behavior after that of an adult. This helps them learn important rules such as being kind or what behaviors are acceptable and unacceptable. By engaging in play that involves interacting with others, children are more likely to learn social skills.

The products also sneak in that educational element, like a Mom sneaking veggies into a meal. The child doesn’t even realize he or she is learning! The child just thinks they are playing and having a great time. What is also great about these products is that so many of the items give kids the opportunity to experience real life things like: baking, money, time, shopping, being a doctor, getting to explore the world, but with a “kid twist” on them, so the toy, game or craft is way more fun compared to “real life”! This type of play is called pretend play which opens up a child to all sorts of learning potential. And that is what it is all about, giving kids the opportunity to learn and grow!
