Play experiences for 4-year-olds

Around the age of four, your child may be starting to refine their motor skills, diving into more creative play and starting to tackle early problem-solving tasks with enthusiasm. They’re likely to be fascinated by building, constructing and creating things on their own, whether it’s piecing together their first LEGO® set, trying out basic role-play games or designing imaginative worlds with friends. You may also see them developing socially and emotionally at their own pace, while beginning to learn about the joys and challenges of teamwork, sharing and playing with others.
