At this time of his life, your boy is working on his social skills. On one hand, he is learning to be more assertive, come up with solutions and perform tasks on his own, and on the other, he is practicing patience, learning how to admit mistakes and express emotions in a socially acceptable way. This is a crucial period for your child’s social development, and group play is an excellent way to hone these very important life skills. However, not every child is the same, and boys will socialize in different ways, whether that be through sports or other physical games, so make sure to figure out what your child enjoys before you decide which toy to go for.
