Children have a natural affection for toys. "Father of Preschool" Frobel described the child's toy as "good", meaning God's gift to children. The eyes of a child when he sees a toy are so excited, impulsive and intoxicating, just like seeing an angel. The process of playing with toys is also a process in which children know the world and know themselves.
With the advancement of science and technology, the production of toys is constantly improving and innovating. The science, education, fun and exquisiteness of toys are getting higher and higher. The toy industry chain has expanded rapidly, and the toys on the market are not connected. What kind of toys are chosen for children, how to use toys reasonably, and how to give full play to the role of toys is a very real problem.
What is a good toy? When we buy something, we will shop around, and things that are cheap and good are the first choice. Similarly, when choosing a toy, it is best to establish a concept of cost-effectiveness in mind, that is, consider the two factors of function and price. The greater the ratio between the two, the higher the cost performance. So, what kind of toy function is efficient? In general, children can be changed and disassembled by themselves. Toys with multiple usability and playability can promote children's development.
When we bring home valuable toys and how to play toys, there is also a problem of maximizing value. Toys and games are inseparable, and using toys to carry out various games can promote the overall development of children. Parents can play toys and games together with their children in a timely and effective manner. If necessary, enhance and expand the game between you to maximize the value of the toy.
At present, electronic products such as mobile phones and tablets are becoming more and more popular, and because of their strong interaction, it is easy to attract children. Scientific and technological products are "double-edged swords". Although they can greatly stimulate children's curiosity and promote intellectual development, they are also addictive and cause certain harm to the body and mind. It is recommended to avoid disadvantages and use them with caution.
In short, toys, as an important tool to promote the healthy development of children's physical and mental health, can only be used effectively if they are used properly.

For children, toys are a part of their lives. Toys accompanying children to have a good childhood are not only the indispensable "good teachers and friends" for their growth, but also an auxiliary tool for developing intelligence, promoting learning and healthy growth of mind and body.
Toys build the relationship between children and the world. Interacting with things of different meanings, giving children a different perspective on the world. Only by gaining a broader and richer perspective can children become full and rich. Thus, the meaning of the toy is not only the operation of a surface, but the shaping of the mind. Children use toys creatively in the game, break through the routine to seek different variants, and enjoy and grow in imagination and performance. Good toys can build a meaningful relationship between children and the world.
Toys can be more closely integrated with children in the game, and its value runs through the game. The value of toys is precisely to eliminate the distance between children and the world, showing the sense of integration of "I am the world" and "I am one with the world." For example, a spoon is a tool for adults to eat, but for children, the sound of different objects such as tables, bowls, plates, etc. by spoons surprises and delights children, thus expanding the understanding of the surrounding world. Spoon toys have more meaning than appliances.
Toys are their partners for children, not indifferent, unconscious physical entities, which create a world full of emotions. What happens to children through toys and the world is a life-to-life discovery and interaction. They imagine everything around them as life-filled and emotional. The toys are branded by children and leave their own lives. Traces, children use toys to discover the hidden meaning of life behind them. In reality, it may be called fictional, but in their hearts it is incomparably true, because it stirs up their most real joys and sorrows.
After a long history, people gradually realized that children are not a machine that can only imitate, nor a small adult who is obsessed with rules, but an individual full of fresh creativity and strong growth.
The game best reflects the child's creative spirit. A good toy can maximize the enthusiasm and imagination created by the child, rather than fixing the child's actions, thoughts and emotions in a set of deadly programs.
In addition, toys should also be the medium that causes children to interact with the outside world. People are the existence of communication, and toys should cause communication rather than disintegration and blockage.
From this, we can find that toys are important carriers that affect children's physical and mental development, and may promote or hinder the healthy development of children. When selecting toys, parents should combine the development stage of children and consider the psychological needs of children to make toys truly become partners for children's growth, rather than let children become lonely players.
