Toys play an important role in a child’s development, with many products on the market specifically designed to support growth and learning from an early age when a child’s mind and body is still changing and developing. When purchasing educational activity toys, parents will want to find the best options for their little ones – products that give numerous educational and developmental benefits, as well as being great value for money. It’s up to retailers to provide them with an extensive selection of products to choose from and leading wholesaler, Baby Brands Direct, can assist with this. We have a brilliant range of toys from top nursery brands – and our selection of activity tables, centres and playsets is guaranteed to tick all the boxes.
Activity tables, centres and playsets are a great way to keep children entertained for hours. These handy items combine multiple toys in one product, so they are great value in terms of entertainment as well as price. These toys make perfect birthday presents as they’re higher ticket items than other activity toys. They are perfect if space is tight in the child’s home and parents don’t have room to keep lots of toys in storage. They’re also great for keeping at relatives’ homes, as they’re easy to store away.
There are plenty of benefits from allowing children to play with activity tables. These great all in one toys are perfect for boosting learning and development. Children can easily develop their language and vocabulary and problem solving skills by following instructions or listening to sounds and phrases spoken by fun characters. Young children can also develop their physical skills by moving around the activity table and using their hands to manipulate buttons, switches and figures. As such, activity tables are perfect for the development of fine motor skills! They’re also great for improving gross motor skills, as children will walk and move around the table in order to access all the engaging activities on offer. They’re a great step-up from playmats when children are able to move independently.
