Discover the power of play with BusyBoard's thoughtfully curated collection of Montessori toys for toddlers aged 18 months to 3 years. Our toys are designed to spark curiosity, foster independence, and promote essential skills like problem-solving, fine motor skills, and cognitive development. Through hands-on exploration, your child will develop critical thinking, creativity, and a lifelong love of learning.
Why Choose Montessori Toys for 1 year old and above?
The Montessori approach to early childhood education is centred around child-led learning, hands-on exploration, and a carefully prepared environment. Montessori toys for 1 year old and above are designed to align with these principles, providing a stimulating and supportive space for your child's natural development.
By choosing Montessori toys, you're empowering your child to:
-
Develop Cognitive Skills: Montessori toys encourage problem-solving, critical thinking, and creativity. As children explore and experiment, they learn to analyse, reason, and make decisions.
-
Refine Motor Skills: Through hands-on play, children develop fine motor skills like grasping, pinching, and using tools. They also improve gross motor skills such as balance, coordination, and spatial awareness.
-
Enhance Sensory Perception: Montessori toys stimulate the senses of sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell. This sensory exploration helps children develop a deeper understanding of the world around them.
-
Foster Social-Emotional Development: Montessori toys promote independence, self-confidence, and empathy. Children learn to work independently, make choices, and cooperate with others.
Our curated selection of Montessori toys is not only fun but also safe, age-appropriate, and durable. They are designed to inspire curiosity, encourage exploration, and support your child's holistic development.

How Montessori Toys Support Toddler Development
Montessori toys support toddler development by fostering independence, concentration, and self-confidence. These toys are designed to be self-correcting, allowing children to learn through trial and error. For example, stacking toys encourage fine motor skills and problem-solving as children experiment with different shapes and sizes. Sensory boards stimulate the senses and promote exploration, while puzzles challenge cognitive development and spatial reasoning. By providing age-appropriate activities, Montessori toys align with a child's natural developmental stages. They encourage focused attention, perseverance, and a sense of accomplishment, ultimately boosting self-esteem and a love of learning.
