Global Wooden Toys Market Key Driver

The rise in kindergarten and preschool enrollments is expected to propel the growth of the wooden toy market going forward. Kindergarten and preschool enrollments refer to the number of children registered and attending early childhood education programs, which provide foundational learning experiences before formal primary education. The growing admissions in preschool and kindergarten programs are driven by increased parental awareness of early education benefits, economic factors, and supportive government policies. Additionally, the rising participation of working parents, improved educational programs, and urbanization contribute to the higher demand for early childhood education. Wooden toys are needed in preschools and early childhood education centers for their educational benefits, including enhancing fine motor skills, cognitive development, and creative play while also providing durability and safety for frequent use by young children. For instance, in May 2024, according to the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), a US-based education governing body, school enrollment rates increased for both age groups, with 3- to 4-year-olds increasing from 40% to 47% and 5-year-olds rising from 79% to 84% between 2021 and 2022. Therefore, a rise in kindergarten and preschool enrollments is driving the growth of the wooden toy market.
