Three years is the age of active brain development. Thanks to this, the baby quickly remembers everything new. Parents are willing to invest in early education (which is why teaching to read and count is so popular). The only thing to remember is that this does not guarantee that you will grow a genius. Time before school is the period when the kid should enjoy the simple joys of children without much worries. Educational games will be an excellent gift. Stores offer a huge number of these toys. The main thing is to choose by age (otherwise the gift will not be understood and will not cause any emotions).

Books are a must and correct gift of all time. Both children and adults love them. The main thing when choosing is colorfulness and age-appropriateness.

• Books with playing music.
• Books with elements that can move.
• Little books (it's best to take on the road or while away the queue at the hospital).
• Books made in an unusual shape (for example, in the form of a dog or a chest).
• Children's audiobooks. The child presses the button and listens to his favorite fairy tale.
• Books with pages that can be colored.
• Books that tell about the world around us in simple words (it's too early to donate encyclopedias).

It has already been said above that the gift must be functional. But it is important to remember that children of this age love to play. Such gifts can be:

• gifts for the nursery - an unusual night light, a carpet with a city map or a puzzle carpet, a car bed or a castle bed;
• creative children's tableware (mug, plate, cutlery) with your favorite hero;
• raincoat in the form of a funny animal or an unusual umbrella (transparent or with pictures);

• bows, hairpins, hair bands;
• child backpack or handbag.

If you want to surprise your baby even more, then by all means give an unusual surprise. This could be:

• fancy dress;
• a table on which you can draw with sand - this activity relaxes and calms the baby;
• plasticine factory;
• karaoke (songs must be for children);
• unusual set for blowing soap bubbles;
• home hammock;
• luminous stickers;
• a car with electric pedals (a small copy of an adult car);
• a voluminous toy (made of cardboard), which you can then decorate to your taste;

• a pirate's chest is a good storage for boys' toys.

A live gift is another option for a birthday present, especially if the child loves animals and the parents are ready to buy a little fluffy. Having a pet will contribute to the development of responsibility, kindness, and care. But there are also small drawbacks that you should think about before buying an animal. A baby at 3 years old is still small to take care of a pet on his own. Therefore, care falls on the shoulders of the parents (consider whether you are ready for additional responsibility).

It is difficult for a child to communicate with an animal (he may not be able to hold small animals in his hands, communication with rodents is a little specific, fish will not interest the baby for a long time, a puppy and a kitten need a lot of love and care). If parents immediately accept the fact that raising and keeping a pet has some difficulties, then any animal will become a real family member. Animals ideal for toddler 3 years old:

• Kitty;
• puppy;
• hamster;
• Guinea pig;
• parrot;
• turtle;
• rat.

Twins in a family are a double joy and a double problem for parents when choosing a birthday present. Should you choose the same or different gifts? To choose a good present for your twins, be guided by the principle of individuality. Yes, babies are similar, but they are two different personalities with their own interests, they are not one whole. Therefore, it is better to give different gifts. Please both the birthday people and avoid the war when sharing the gift.

Advice when choosing a present - gifts are similar, but somewhat different (2 books, but different names; 2 soft toys: a teddy bear and a dog; constructor, but with different themes).

If you still want to give one gift, then let it be something big and solid:

• dry pool;
• tent;
• board games.

At the age of 3, the energy of children is overwhelming - they are ready to run, jump, climb slides. This can be inconvenient. Therefore, you need to choose gifts that channel energy in a peaceful direction. The list of useful gifts for a little shustrik is as follows.

• Balls - rubber, football, inflatable (not very heavy and made of high quality soft materials).
• Runbike (bike without pedals). Develops agility and coordination well.
• A sports corner with a climbing wall, rope ladder, horizontal bar, rope, rings and swings. A very useful gift, provided that there is a mat and an adult to ensure safety.
• Children's bowling.
• Skis, sleds.
• Kite, boomerang, frisbee.
• Trampoline or plastic sandbox if you have your own plot or large apartment.
• Bike.
• Dry pool filled with balls.
• Inflatable pool.
• Children's darts with Velcro.
• Dance rug. Future visitors to discos will be delighted with this gift.

It is better not to give a scooter and skates. At an early age, they are bad for the physical development of the child. Choose one of the suggested bright ideas or give something completely individual. Don't be afraid not to please with the gift. The present, chosen with love, will definitely please.

Otherwise, the guinea pig may be an unpleasant surprise. Or just a few guests will buy the same toys, and then the parents will have to somehow sort it out.
