Children grow fast, and what they enjoy changes with them. A rough guide:
0-12 months
Things to grasp, shake and mouth: rattles, soft toys, smooth wooden shapes.
1-3 years
Stacking, posting, pushing and pulling: stackers, blocks, pull-along toys and simple puzzles.
3-5 years
Small worlds and stories: animals, figures, dolls' houses, and first crayons.
5 years and up
Making things: drawing, building bigger, games with rules.
Every child is different; let them lead.
