The WPPSI is designed for children age 4-6 1/2 years.
Such tests include the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale, the Wechsler Intelligence Scales, the Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence, and the Kaufmann Assessment Battery for Children.

There are actually three categories, Weschler adult intelligence scale (WAIS), one for children called the Weschler intelligence scale for children (WISC) and one for really young kids called the Weschler preschool and primary scale of intelligence (WPPSI).

David Wechsler developed an intelligence test for children in 1949 called the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC).
WAIS = Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale WAIS-R - Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale - Revised

Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children
Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale
The Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS) is a commonly used intelligence test developed by David Wechsler that assesses both verbal and nonverbal abilities in adults.
The Wechsler Full Scale IQ is a measure of general intelligence that is derived from several subtests of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS) or Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC). It provides an overall assessment of an individual's cognitive abilities, including verbal comprehension, perceptual reasoning, working memory, and processing speed. The Full Scale IQ score is a standardized score with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15.
David Wechsler made significant contributions to psychology by developing intelligence tests such as the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS) and the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC). These tests revolutionized the field by providing a comprehensive assessment of cognitive abilities beyond just a single IQ score. Wechsler's work helped expand our understanding of human intelligence and how it can be measured in a more comprehensive and nuanced way.
