Toddlers and young children can’t get enough of Paw Patrol, so here are the best Paw Patrol toys for your little fan.
As a teacher, I’ve compiled a list of toys that I think are great for creativity, imaginative and pretend play, educational purposes, and fun!
Before You Buy
Here are a few considerations before you buy:
- Small parts and safety: Check your toy for small parts and follow the packaging for age recommendations. Remember, anything that can fit through a toilet paper tube is a choking hazard.
- Violence: Many Paw Patrol sets and action figures have parts that shoot off them (like grappling hooks, etc.). If you have restrictions in your home or are buying this as a gift, I would steer clear of anything with a shooting function.
Music Players
You know I’m a huge fan of music players for toddlers. In my house, we have a Toniebox and a Yoto Mini. If you already have one player or the other, you’re in luck! Paw Patrol Tonies and Yoto cards are ready to add to your collection.
Just getting started? There are starter packs for both systems.
Pro Tip: Younger children 0-3 are more suited to the Yoto Original or Toniebox. For children 3+, I would recommend the Yoto Mini (read why).
Paw Patrol Plushies
These plush characters are super cute; you can find almost every character!
Action Figures and Vehicles
Each action figure comes with the dog character and their vehicle. These toys are simple but well-made. We have a bunch.
Pro Tip: Did you know you can usually find these for sale at Aldi?!
Deluxe and Transforming Vehicles
These cars are a lot of fun because they transform into other things or have additional interactive components and features. We love Skye’s transforming truck, Chase’s transforming truck, and Rocky’s deluxe garbage truck.
Arts and Crafts
These cute Paw Patrol arts and crafts kits are great for teaching creativity and fine motor skills.
Puzzles and Games
Here are some Paw Patrol puzzles and games for all age groups. Puzzles and games are great for problem-solving, logic, reasoning, pattern, and shape recognition.
Play Sets
These play sets are more than just action figures and their cars–they are designed for open-ended imagination and pretend play.
Paw Patrol Learning Toys
I love these toys because they are educational (teacher here!). These educational Paw Patrol toys are must-haves for little enthusiasts, from dress-up and role-playing to sorting and stacking.
Building Blocks
I’m a huge Lego Duplo fan of their variety of playsets; however, these Paw Patrol MegaBloks sets are also compatible with Duplo ?!! Mix and match all the pups with your favorite Duplo sets to make one-of-a-kind creations.
