10 Best Toys for Preschoolers Learning at Home

Geo-board

Creating geoboards

This awesome geoboard kit helps kids learn about shapes, letters and designs. It encourages kids to work on their fine motor skills, concentration and creativity. The toy comes with lots of geoboard pattern cards to get them started.

More tips for at-home learning:

  • Less is more. Studies have shown that kids are more engaged when they have fewer toys to play with. Try not to clutter your kids’ playroom with mountains of toys. Keep a small selection of toys to play with and then store the remainder in your garage or attic. 
  • Arrange the toys. Montessori schools arrange activities on separate trays or baskets. This encourages kids to be independent and take and use their own work. It also encourages them to clean up afterward and put everything back in the right place.  
  • Swap out your toys. Kids get bored, so remember to retrieve those hidden toys from the garage and put out new items for them to play with. A toy that has been out of circulation for a few weeks can seem shiny and new again to a young kid.
