3 Years & Up Toys for Two Tots or More

As the oldest of 6 children, I was taught how to share and be friendly from a young age! It was required to get along and love your siblings in my household; therefore, the fact that there are toys for 2 tots and more is thrilling to me. It’s important for kids to discover how sharing can lead to better relationships with friends, brother and sisters, and younger or older family members in general. However, I’ve dubbed 3 years old the “MINE!” phase, as even toddlers with siblings are hesitant to give up their beloved toys.

But, just in case, here are the top 3 toys for 3 year old kids that are learning the importance of sharing and caring.

Imaginarium Alphabet & Numbers Foam Puzzle Mat

Available in 36 foam pieces, this kit includes easy-grasp puzzle pieces that feature the alphabet A-Z and numbers 0 through 9. Each section interlocks to create a soft play-surface that kids can roll around or dance on. Perfect for a preschool setting with storytimes, or simply a cool rug for a child’s at-home playroom, this kit teaches children teamwork as they’ll build and construct together. When they’re all finished, a zippered bag offers a perfect place for easy storage.

Crayola Magnetic Double-Sided Easel

With 2 drawing surfaces, this easel is an instant favorite for parents with 2+ children. There are several ways for kids to enjoy this toy, as 4 plastic bins hold paints, pencils, and all necessary art equipment for hours of drawing, painting, sketching, and tracing fun. There are tons of methods that kids can use to create on this easel! One side is a chalkboard, while the other is a magnetic, dry-erase board, offering kids a chance to show their skills in both artistic venues. It’s also easy to fold and storage is a cinch!
