The third birthday is a holiday when a birthday man and his little guests can arrange a separate table with children's dishes. This is necessary so that your child feels like a hero of the day.

Making a children's room or the whole apartment for the holiday is not so difficult. Today, the assortment of birthday celebration kits is so wide that mom only needs to decide on the subject. The situation is more complicated with the gift. In order to decide what to give the child for 3 years, it’s worth a little to delve into the psychological characteristics of this age. Firstly, the kid prefers plot games, introducing himself as the driver of his father’s car, then his mother, preparing dinner. Secondly, the child no longer needs a game assistant. He is quite capable of doing without mom. Thirdly, he is fascinated by activities requiring the manifestation of logical thinking and attentiveness.

What toys are interesting for 3 year old children?

Forget plush hares, lacing toys and wheelchairs. Such entertainments to the three-year-old are no longer interesting. It's time for interactive toys that are controlled by remote controls, buttons, levers. Musical and interesting educational toys will not be ignored.

If earlier the sex of the child did not play a special role in choosing a gift, then at the age of three children already clearly realize this. Boys gravitate to cars, and girls imagine themselves mothers of their dolls and dolls.

A three-year-old baby already has his own opinion, interests and preferences, so he is waiting on his birthday for a very specific gift that meets his tastes. When thinking of what to give a child for 3 years, it is important to take care of this in advance, taking an interest in the hobbies of a girl or boy, and not choose something abstract - the reaction to such a present can be negative.

Three years is an interesting and at the same time difficult age when a small person begins to perceive himself as a person. The crisis of this period is that children, despite their enormous affection for parents, tend to be independent, and therefore often reject adult help. At the same time, they are in desperate need of it, and this becomes the cause of imbalance and even nervous breakdowns.

The task of adults during this period is to recognize the values \u200b\u200bof the child, respectful attitude to his personality, as well as the daily direction of the baby’s energy in a useful direction. Games, as before, remain for children the main learning process for obtaining information and understanding the environment.

At three years old, the child continues to successfully master the role-playing process, now he is the director and scriptwriter of his own stories. This is extremely important for the baby, because in this way he models life situations and learns to resolve them.

Hence, such a passion for theatrical performances, in which the baby plays a major role, introducing himself as a great musician, then a doctor treating sick dolls, then a caring mother nursing a baby doll. Guests invited to the celebration and not knowing what to give the three-year-old child should take into account this circumstance and choose something suitable - a doll, a dollhouse or a stroller, a toy kitchen, a house, a car, sets for story games with accessories necessary for transforming into characters of different professions.

By the age of three, children will learn many new skills, but there are still many skills ahead that they have yet to learn, so developing games for logic, training memory and attention remain among the most preferred gifts. These are designers, mosaics and puzzles, educational children's computers and tablets, an interactive globe, a magnetic board for learning the alphabet, children's lotto of various kinds, dominoes.

For active games that develop a child physically, you will need children's transport. At this age, parents are free to give boys and girls a bicycle, a runbike, a home sports complex, and a trampoline.

Three-year-olds are happy to be creative - they like to sing, listen to music, draw, and sculpt. It remains only to find out what the birthday boy likes best and give him a synthesizer, a piano, an easel for children, paintings for coloring by numbers, a modeling kit made of plasticine or polymer clay, and other creative kits for creating cute crafts.

Just a year ago, the little one with delight in his eyes took a balloon as a gift. But on a birthday on the occasion of the third anniversary of such a baby's present is not surprising. Moreover, at this age, children already have their own preferences and interests, so if you can’t guess with a surprise, because of the immediacy, the child will not be able to hide disappointment and will go to consider other gifts. In general, one must approach the choice of what to give to a three-year-old boy or girl with all responsibility, in order to please the birthday boy, and not to be in an awkward situation himself.

“I’m already three years old!”

This age in child psychology is considered a transition from early childhood to preschool life. Peanut already knows a lot and knows:

• distinguishes at least 4–5 colors;
• understands what shape, size and length are, can characterize objects on these grounds;
• makes operations with small objects and coordinates its movements well, because the fine motor skills of the three-year-old are quite perfect for this;
• actively masters speech, demonstrates developed memory and thinking. If the child used to accumulate vocabulary, now the time has come to give it all out in a continuous stream of words;
• shows independence with the favorite phrase of all 36-month-old children: "I myself!". Sometimes this principle of life of crumbs is able to turn it into a stubborn, few of which.

Conclusion: the baby at 3 years old is cheerful, spontaneous and very active, for games he needs his parents less and less.

Principles for choosing a gift for a three-year-old child

The basic rule can be formulated as follows: no matter what you give, it should be an order of magnitude more complicated than before, and be sure to bring benefits. In other words, cars do not just drive, but they can be controlled with a remote control, soft toys not only make sounds, but also move, talk, and react to the actions of the child. In addition, the gift should be:

• bright (this principle is unchanged for children under 7–8 years old);
• new (otherwise the baby will necessarily indicate a repeat and, of course, will not be interested in a souvenir at all);
• by age (age restrictions are very important, because too complicated a puzzle or lotto with a dozen pictures on one playing field will not cause interest, as well as a toy lacing).

By the age of 3, a huge arsenal of toys, books and other children's goods is already accumulating in children. So you have to choose with great care.

Toys

Toddlers of preschool age actively introduce toys into role-playing games. So if you plan to give a teddy bear, then he should speak (sing), name numbers, move his paws, etc. Children will be interested in the characters of popular fairy tales or cartoons that can be controlled using the remote control, levers, buttons.

At 3 years old, kids are already quite clearly aware of themselves as boys and girls, which means that the former gravitate toward cars, and the latter gravitate toward dolls and dolls.

Game sets

Items for role-playing games will certainly interest the birthday boy. After all, playing in a hospital with a doctor’s tools, in a beauty salon with a hairdresser kit, or in a repair shop with a master kit is very exciting. In this category there is a completely separate screen for the puppet theater and dolls for it. Children will be very happy to stage performances with fairy-tale characters, to come up with roles for them. This gift is simply indispensable if the family has several kids of about the same age.

Educational gifts

Children at the age of three are no longer satisfied with the examination, they need more detailed information. Hence the constant “Why?”. So a developing toy must necessarily be difficult to work, to work on the training of ingenuity, imagination and thinking of the baby.

1. Books. The best gift, but without coordination with parents, it is not recommended to give. By the age of 3, the child already knows many poems, fairy tales, so there is a great chance of repeating in the library. The publication can be with a panoramic layout, sound, or with elements of stencils-coloring.
2. Interactive globe. Usually it is presented to schoolchildren, but for a three-year-old crumbs, you can buy the simplest model, for example, with 5 programs, thanks to which the little one will learn about the sights of the world, get acquainted with the geographical names and language of a country. Some globes have a knowledge test feature.
3. Educational gadgets. Tablets and laptops, no doubt, will be interesting to kids. With their help, the child will be able to learn to read, write, count and even begin to learn a foreign language.
4. Cubes. Only now not with animals (vegetables, fruits), but with letters. Please note that the toy should be safe (without sharp corners), with large images and preferably accompanied by a teaching guide for teaching reading three-year-olds. Chaplygin and Zaitsev sets are ideally suited for these requirements.
5. Models of talking posters on the wall. With their help, the birthday boy will be happy to get acquainted with the alphabet, geographical names, the world of animals and plants.
6. Math books: posters and magnetic boards. With such a useful toy, the baby will not only master the count to 10 (or up to 100), but also learn to perform simple arithmetic operations.
7. Constructor-burdock. Unusual details resembling thorns are fastened together with Velcro. The kit also includes eyes, pens, legs, etc., which makes it possible for the little ones to create figures not only according to the model, but also at the behest of their own imagination. The only minus: elements with careless handling can get into the hair, so you have to play in the presence of adults.

Developing Gift Ideas - Photo Gallery

Zaitsev’s cubes is a whole methodological complex for teaching reading with posters, chants and other elements. Using Chaplygin’s cubes, after 3-4 lessons, the child will understand the principle of reading. In 3 years, designers can give more than 100 parts. The designer with Velcro does not limit the creative impulse of the child static mounts and shapes

Sporting goods for active summer and winter holidays

Of course, not all children like to spend time actively, run and jump. But for most, just such a leisure is the most desirable. In this case, you can give:

• bicycle (three-wheeled or two-wheeled - ask your parents);
• runbike (the same bike, but without pedals);
• sledges (for winter three-year-olds);
• scooter (excellent summer transport for children of both sexes);
• ice skating (if the child is engaged in or is fond of figure skating, hockey);
• a hula-hoop for a girl or a soccer ball with the necessary equipment for a boy.

Budget gifts in this category will be accessories for swimming, boomerangs, tennis rackets, etc.

Creative gifts

The artistic impulses of a 3-year-old child can be reflected in the wallpaper and furniture in the house. And yet talent must still be maintained. So the gift should simply direct creative energy in the right direction.

1. Ceramic figures for painting, sand murals (sticky base-picture is covered with colored sand), applications with stickers and stencils, etc.
2. Applications on the buttons. A rather interesting kind of creative activity, akin to a puppet theater: finished parts are connected by special elements, and a moving picture is obtained.
3. Kinetic sand - a material that allows you to create any figures, while not getting dirty, not crumbling.
4. A synthesizer with a microphone is a variant of children's karaoke. On it you can not only listen to the recorded melodies, but also record your own, sing under them, and also make arrangements. By the way, on such a piano some begin to learn to play musical instruments.
5. Fancy dress (nurses, superman, minion, etc.). Such a gift would be especially suitable for a baby who loves role-playing games.
6. Face painting - hypoallergenic paints that paint the face and body.

Original surprises

The market for children's goods is replete with a variety of toys and manuals. And if you want to make an unusual surprise, then the main thing is not to get confused in the options.

1. Desktop sandbox. It is relevant even for adults (to calm). But the baby will be able to play at home with the apiary, figurines and in the bad weather.
2. A cardboard toy, for example, a house or a rocket (engine), the design of which remains with the birthday man. They do it with their own hands, remembering the accuracy and durability of the created structure.
3. Glowing stickers. Such designer pieces are used as a decoration for the room of a child or adult. For example, a starry sky instead of a boring ceiling. You can glue pictures with mom and dad.
4. Kite. He will delight both the birthday man and his relatives. The main thing is that the weather be suitable.
5. Stork boxing. Not so long ago appeared toy. It is a sealed cardboard box (may be of different sizes) with contents, which even the donor himself will know about only when the gift is opened.

Sweets in 3 years

At 3 years old, the baby already knows and loves sweets for sure. You can give him an originally decorated candy cookie. However, there is one “But!”. Before presenting such a souvenir, find out:

• does the child have allergies?
• the attitude of parents to gifts of this kind.

Commemorative Presents

This category of gifts is a kind of souvenirs “for growth” or “for parents”. That is, the hero of the occasion will not be interested in the surprise, since, from the point of view of the three-year-old, it is useless. However, this does not detract from the importance of such gifts, even if the child understands them after many years.

1. PHOTOSESSION. There are few people indifferent to the photo with their immediate children's faces. A photoset can, by the way, be made traditional.
2. Jewelry (rings, chains, bracelets, etc.). Not only the girl, but the boy will be very dear to them years later.
3. Cash contribution. The most practical gift: the birthday person, taking money on the day of the 18th birthday, will definitely appreciate it.

Pets

The pet is a very useful gift for the child, because the baby learns to take care of someone, becomes responsible, kind and sympathetic. But at first, of course, all care for the animal will be on the shoulders of mom and dad. That's why such a present needs to be coordinated with the parents of the birthday.

For a three-year-old, it’s suitable:

• hamster;
• rat;
• guinea pig;
• kitten, puppy;
• large snail;
• turtle;
• parrot etc.

Please note that the donated animal must be vaccinated, and also do not forget about a certificate from the veterinarian about the health status of a new family member.

If you are giving a pet that suggests it has a cage, then decide this question. Otherwise, the gift will be a disservice.

DIY gifts

Despite all the controversy as to whether such a gift will be clear to the baby, do-it-yourself things keep more warmth than purchased options. What can be presented to a three-year-old?

1. Soft soccer balls made of foam rubber, trimmed with colored rags of fabric, which are used both for their intended purpose and as a pillow.
2. Dolls from kapron stockings.
3. Boxes for pencils and felt-tip pens with the plot of your favorite cartoon, made using the decoupage technique.
4. Clothing with photo printing and more.

If such a gift is preserved for a long memory, then surely, falling into the hands of the present birthday man in a couple of decades, will cause special thrill and pleasant memories of childhood.
