A horse stable is a perfect toy for a 3 year old. Your child can use their imagination to play with and take care of the horses and line them up in the stable. This compactable set is perfect to travel with or even take it to the park. It also gives name tags to name their own horses. How adorable is that!

Who doesn’t love nursery rhymes? These interactive books are an absolute favorite for my 3 year old. They make nursery rhymes more fun with piano sounds and bright colors. Plus, the fun visuals and music will grab their attention.
KidKraft Ultimate Corner Play Kitchen Set
If there is one toy that gets used over and over and over by toddlers, it’s a play kitchen. All of our boys and girls have loved playing kitchen in the house. Serving us fake pizza, apples, or even coffee. Toddlers simply love this toy and will use it for a few years without fail. This KidKraft model is definitely one of the better models out there and is simply adorable (I mean check out the kitchen backsplash!).

Does your little girl desperately want a puppy? Then, this puppy set is all you need. What an incredible toy to give to your little girl. She can carry her wherever she goes, throw the bone or the softball to fetch, or brush its hair! She can even put the puppy to sleep with the cute padded pink bed and the soft blanket. 5 stars just for the cuteness!

Create an ambiance of a starry night and let them delve into outer space and galaxies. This cute globe-shaped light projector will create a soothing and comforting atmosphere in your child’s bedroom, which might also help them sleep through the night in their room.

Get the best of both worlds with this awesome watch that is pink and purple and has butterflies on it! This watch makes a great present for a 3 year old girl who is learning the concept of time.
Magnetic Blocks
Magnetic Blocks are one of my absolute favorite toys for 3 year olds. I love them because not only do they entertain the little ones for quite a while, all my kids enjoy playing with them. Even I find myself sitting down with my little one for a long time playing with these magnetic blocks. They are a ton of fun. In addition, it is a great way to teach your little one about shapes and colors.
Flybar My First Foam Pogo Jumper
At this age, you can’t get them to sit in one place so instead, let them jump and hop around on their Flybar! Hopping on it will have them playful and smiling all day and will also develop balance and coordination.
Mad Matt-R
This is one of my own little girl’s favorite toys. Mad Matt-R will have all your kiddos obsessed. It is much better than Kinetic sand and NEVER DRIES OUT. This is a great sensory toy and our kids absolutely love it.
Crayola Color and Erase Mat
In essence, the Crayola Color and Erase Mat is a sizable erasable canvas that fosters your child’s creativity. When your child is through, just clean the mat with a damp cloth to restore it to its initial condition. It genuinely wipes all the way down and doesn’t leave smudges, in contrast to some of the other doodle mats we’ve tested.
The kit comes with a 32″ by 23″ Reusable Drawing Mat, 6 Washable Markers, and 1 Wipe Cloth. The mat is simple to store and travel because it rolls up easily and provides a spot for each marker.
Design & Drill Flower Power Studio: Over 70 Pieces, Preschool Drill Toy, STEM for Girls
This is the perfect age to get them started with their own creative arts and crafts. This set gets them to design colorful patterns. It is an amazing way to keep them busy and creative at the same time. And, trust me, they will surprise you with their imaginations.
Mighty Echo Microphone
Give a mic in the little girl’s hand and let her feel like a pop star! Let them sing, play and listen to music and different sounds and give them the chance to be the star that they are. Who knows this could be the start of a career. This microphone makes an echo as you sing giving it a real feel. This is a perfect gift for them to boost their confidence and make them stand out.
Melissa & Doug Catch & Count Wooden Fishing Game With 2 Magnetic Rods
I remember having this as a kid but a very basic version of course! This fun fishing game is a family favorite keeping everyone busy and spending quality time with your child. This is an exciting way for your 3 year old to learn numbers and colors.
