There’s something so magical about seeing your little one deeply engaged in play: their brow furrowed in concentration; their mouth moving as they silently narrate to themselves. Even better is, after bedtime, finding the toys carefully placed in specific setups — it’s a peek into their world and all that they’re exploring.
That’s why, when it comes to play in those formative years, offering the right toys is so important. And there’s no better option than PLAYMOBIL JUNIOR. Sets from PLAYMOBIL JUNIOR not only ignite infinite ways to play (they really will keep your toddler engaged!), but they’re also made from over 90% plant-based materials and are guaranteed free from plasticizers (BPA). Plus, they’re made in the EU and — crucially — are easy to clean.
PLAYMOBIL JUNIOR is perfect for ages 1 to 4. Pro tip: None of the kits contain any small, potentially swallowable parts, so these make great gifts for houses where there are two toddlers of different ages.
Here are our top three picks, which we’ll be snagging for every toddler on our list.
For The One Who Loves The Farm
Got a farm-loving kiddo? Help them get through the long winter by picking up this set ASAP. It comes complete with four animals, a tractor and trailer, a barn, and more farm-friendly accessories. There’s even a treat dispenser inside the barn for the animals’ pretend mealtimes.
For The One Who Loves Pets
If you’ve got a pet at home — or a kid who would like one — this is a great way to practice taking care of it. Kids can match the right food to the right animal, feed them through a feeder, and set pets up in their respective beds. The included building even rotates for added fun.
For The One Who Loves Staying Busy
If there’s one thing toddlers love, it’s forklifts… and pretending to sell things in a store-like environment… oh and actually anything with wheels. This playset combines the best of all worlds, offering littles the chance to deliver food with a forklift, sort fruits and veggies into stackable crates, and even use a figure to push a wheeled shopping cart through the stalls.
