Best Gifts for Kids Age 4-5 Years

Nov 20, 2023
By the time little ones reach school age the range of toys on offer is vast which can make choosing gifts tricky. We can help!

Four and five year olds will love construction toys and open ended loose parts which encourage creativity through building. Small world play and role play toys are a hit at this age while art and creative play sets are especially good for chilly winter days when they spend more time indoors.

      Open ended materials and loose parts are great for little builders and creatives. They encourage imaginative play as little ones can make whole worlds and magical lands out of a simple set of blocks. The Grapat Lola and Carla sets are an investment you won't regret. They include different shaped blocks, cups, rings and characters that little ones will come back to over and over.  The Smallkind boys still use their loose parts daily at age 10 and 7.
