Do We Need to Rethink on Our Choice of Toys For Our Children? Yes! Claim Retailers of Classic Toys
Do your kids a favor…swap those glitzy automated electronic toys for the classic ones that nurture children and encourage them to use their imagination

Children express their understanding of the world around them through toys. Thus, you have kids playing doctors to their stuffed toy, or cooing to their favorite dolly that's missing an eye or a chunk of hair. These are the toys that grow with the child and remain their eternal favorites-even when they grow up!
But if estimates from toy experts are to be believed, almost 75 per cent of the toys that were introduced this year, had a mini-chip installed within them. High tech electronic toys have now replaced the simple and classic toys of yore. Children no longer have to use their imagination when playing with these automated gizmos. At the push of a button the toy car or doll sings, flashes light, walks and talks- there's nothing left for the child to do besides pressing the on and off key.
Besides the electronic sound and light types, there are also toys that focus on violence or over stimulate the kid. And then there are video games - these come with problems of their own. They take control of the play and direct the child, rather than the other way round.
Parents often end up buying these mass produced junk playthings because they're cheap - it is easy to fill your kid's toy chest with a lot of these than buying a few yet imaginative ones. But children get bored of them soon and are looking for something new - perhaps more stimulating. Thus, in the end, it gets a lot more expensive because you're constantly buying new ones to replace the old.
"A good toy is only ten percent about the toy and ninety percent about the child that's using it. At our online store, we're constantly refusing offers from manufacturers of these passive toys and online games. The toys that we sell challenge dexterity and logic and stimulate various skill developments," says Marina Neiman, co-founder of 1888toys.com. This educational toy store sells about 90 different categories of toys including wooden toys, educational toys, puppets, puzzles, etc.
