Not all toys encourage creativity and deep learning—some limit exploration. These are called close-ended toys, and here’s what makes them different! Examples of Close-Ended Toys: Electronic toys, puzzle boards with fixed solutions, shape sorters, flashing light-up toys, and pre-programmed talking dolls. While these toys aren’t bad, balancing them with open-ended toys ensures your child develops creativity, problem-solving, and deep focus. Want to encourage more engaged play?
