Make good use of toys to help children grow

With the improvement of material living standards, the variety of children’s toys now far exceeds that of any previous era. On the one hand, younger children do not have much judgment ability and often want to buy new toys when they see them. Parents have to “match wits and courage” with their children. On the other hand, parents also need to consciously help their children choose the right ones. toys, and fully realize the importance of toys in children’s growth.

First of all, toys are important companions for children. For children, perhaps the biggest difference between a toy and parents and other caregivers is that it is always “there” and “emotionally stable.” Babies and toddlers often give toys real life. For example, when children learn to fall asleep independently and need to face darkness, loneliness, and boundaryless fantasies alone, toys will become an important source of security and support for children. Toys will also play a certain role in replacing parents during the transition period when children first enter kindergarten, accompanying them to adapt to challenges.

Secondly, toys also have rich social functions. Young children usually like to play with toys by themselves, but as they get older, they often exchange toys with playmates or play together, and engage in “role play” with toys. In this process, toys become social tools that help children develop social functions and establish peer relationships.

Secondly, toys also have important learning and educational functions. Toys are an important medium for children to initially explore and understand the world. In particular, some educational toys enable children to acquire knowledge while having fun and promote the development of their thinking and creativity.
