Hello everybody, I completely agree with you Nam, and in my opinion you are entirely correct in your last sentence, when you remarks the fact of learning how to play with toys is even as important as the toy itself.
In the meantime, I find the are several problem with toys in our current live. Firstly, the children are constantly subjected to an enormous attack of publicity - specially in these days with the Christmas season in western countries. That produces, I think, a very negative effect on children because they are constantly thinking not in enjoying but in having as much toys as possible. Another problem is the big diference between the real gifts and those you saw on TV. Sometimes they even seem not to be the same, and as all you know the reason is that...of course, on the TV an the advertisement business the shape is the most important. In conclusion, we parents need to be a little more responsible in this topic. It's easy to buy, and buy and buy. The shops are full of marvellous boxes with fantastic toys that appears delicious to our child's eyes. But it's necessary to think a moment if we do the best to our children by buying them all they want and whenever they want.
