Gifts for preschoolers are so fun to shop for, but there is so much to choose from.

Here are a few basic principles, I always keep in mind whilst buying gifts for children

• Toys that are open-ended– these are toys that can be used in a variety of ways and leave room for imagination;
• A toy that can be used as your child grows – This is about avoiding the latest ‘toy fad’ but choosing toys they’ll come back to again and again;
• Variety – Give your kids a broad range of toys so that they build a variety of skills and interests;
• Purpose – Think about the purpose behind a toy. How will it benefit my child to own it?
• Toys that last– Choose good quality toys that will stand the test of time.

A WORD ON THE GIFT GUIDES…These guides are meant to inspire, rather than be a list of everything your child must have!
