Best Educational Toys for Kids

Loving to learn starts from a young age, and comes in a variety of forms, from curiosity about the world to constructing advanced projects to building emotional connections with those around you.

To support this natural development and encourage learning through play, here are some of the best educational toys that kids aged 4+ can tackle on their own or with others!

What is Learning Through Play?

The more we study children’s brains and development, the more evidence we see that children learn best through play.

Children learn by experimenting and playing with the world around them from their earliest years – think of a baby crumpling paper, or a toddler making pretend food in a toy kitchen. These children are discovering how their world works and developing key cognitive, physical, and social-emotional skills.

As they grow older, there may be more focus on academic instruction, but playful learning is still necessary! Kids can make meaningful connections between joyful experiences and their education, setting the stage for them to become life-long learners with a love of exploration and discovery.

LEGO® Classic Creative Vehicles

Introduce kids aged 5 and up to a world of creativity with the versatile LEGO® Classic Creative Vehicles set!

Featuring 900 construction bricks, including special pieces and 52 wheels, kids have everything they need to build 8 unique vehicles – including a toy police car, ice-cream truck, limo and more.

Plus, they can develop their creative building skills and get experimental with rebuild or free-building fun! Kids can build one of the 10 included ideas and use the imaginative rebuild guidance to boost up their creative confidence. They can also free build and bring their own designs to life.

LEGO® Creator T. rex

Teach young learners all about ancient worlds and creatures as they explore this awesome LEGO® Creator T. rex dinosaur toy. They can bring it to life by moving its head, feet, tail and more into different poses, offering endless opportunities for creative play.
