Wooden Toys What is this current trend of childrens wooden toys and why? Is it funky and fashionable or is it traditional and nostalgic? Here are some of the answers.When buying toys for our children and grandchildren we are filled with thoughts of our own childhood. There have always been toys made of wood, if not manufactured and purchased as today then wooden toys would have been crafted by family and friends for the children. Wooden toys today are more sophisticated and safe using child safe raw materials with designs being more appealing to the eye but fundamentally, wooden toys serve the same purpose as a tool in the development of a child's early learning skills as they have done for generations. In contrast to many toys available childrens wooden toys do not require batteries, are durable and mostly made from wood or wood bi-products from sustainable sources. Traditional Toys Wooden traditional toys include Noah’s ark, pirate ships, dolls houses, garage toys, baby walkers, ride-on toys and playsets for toddlers, kids and children. Traditional wooden toys that survive fashion trends reflect the environment that children are associated. For example as long as there have been cars on the road, children will act out their play through riding in toy cars from a very early age starting with rocking and ride-on cars, progressing to little boys and little girls pedal cars. Wooden toy garages remain a popular choice. Likewise role play kitchen toys for preschool children are associated with learning activities of day to day life with wooden dolls houses also reflecting familiar activities in the world of the preschool child. Generations of toddler kids and small children love to pretend play these familiar daily activities. Activity Toys Toddlers and preschool children are renowned for getting into everything. Their personal development is very rapid. They love to push, pull, twist and post objects, opening and closing doors and moving anything and everything about in their wake. If an object makes a noise then so much the better for the busy toddler and their friends. Wooden activity toys meet the childrens accelerated development with both parents and nursery school equipment robustly designed to take the wear and tear of little boys and girls. Activity play tables are a popular choice where the toddler can stand or sit with a variety of tasks to stimulate creativity and imagination. Educational Toys Modern parents and grandparents appreciate that childrens early learning skills are stimulated through the use of educational toys in their early life. Learning language and numerical skills are absorbed like a sponge at this early stage of development. Other learnt skills, including discovery, imaginary and social interaction are part of the child's early education. Importantly when selecting a kids educational toy is to consider what the toy consists of in the child's daily activities in particular the child's association with their environment be it town or farm and their circles of friends they come into contact with. It is not how big the toy is but how much educational interest and entertainment the preschool child can glean from the toy that is important. |
