Little Dutch games

You can never start playing a game too early! Little Dutch games welcome beginning players and puzzlers alike. You'll find games and puzzles for children from 1 up to about 6 years old. Each one comes in lovely pastel shades and stars the familiar Little Dutch characters from the different collections. Playing a game is both educational and a wonderful moment to come together after a busy day. It brings relaxation and strengthens the bond between parent and child.

The more Little Dutch games, the better!

Playing lots of games supports a child's development in all kinds of ways. Little Dutch games train spatial awareness, fine motor skills, and memory. Children also learn to concentrate and stay focused. When choosing the right children's game, keep the child's age and skills in mind. Around age three, children can follow simple rules, making it the right time for their first board games. Try a round of memory with Little Dutch Memo.

Build dexterity with Little Dutch games

Some Little Dutch games call for a bit of dexterity. Balance Little Goose's chicks on the wobbling base in a balancing game, for instance. This challenging Little Dutch toy takes patience and a sense of balance. Or practice hand-eye coordination with the Little Dutch fishing game, a fresh take on a classic game. The magnetic wooden sea creatures feature the signature style and soft colors of Little Dutch. Place the underwater animals in the aquarium and fish them back out with the magnetic fishing rods. By using different rules, you can adapt the level of the fishing game to the players' ages.
