As we grow old, our preferred toys or those that were given to us changes, sometimes they don't. It may vary depending on our age, gender, or our preference. Our parents provide us initially with kids' toys to capture our attention and obedience. As we progress, they offer us important things such as love, care, and trust.
These things are much special than any material things that we would receive. The memories that kid's toys give us, however, will remain for such a long time when compared to any gifts that we would receive.
Parents are very excited to shop for their child even if the baby is not yet born. At the time that the ultrasound reveals the gender of the child, the whole family is thrilled to give the child the best thing they could give. Parents and caregivers usually choose the right kids toys to be offered to children. If the child is below one year old, toys that might cause possible choking are avoided.
Being a child, stuffed toys, blocks, puzzles, cars, and dolls are the most common toys. Bicycles, building blocks, coloring workbooks, and other materials could be given as the child grows older.
Funny how teenagers and adults can still find themselves satisfied with the same kids toys offered to them when they were small. Though their likes are now focused on things that are useful and those popular in the society, kids toys are still as important as the latest gadget or the latest fashion trends. Males still prefer to have motorcycle or car toys in their closets as an ornament while females are happy shopping and receiving cuddly stuffed toys or dolls.
Cars are frequently referred to as "toys for the big boys". A small child is very happy when his parents bought him car miniatures but as he reaches adulthood he wanted that miniature to be a real one. Having a car is like a dream come true for many adults.
Though real cars are what big boys go after, some of them still love collecting toy cars and keeping them in their homes as decorations, keep sakes, or simply as toys they can still play with. Some people continue to have fun having collections of their plaything. They even spend more just to complete the collection because in one way or another they are happy with what they are buying, or they just love bringing out the kid in them.
Toys are usually given to kids or children for fun, amusement, and learning. The memories they carry along with them, however, are the main reasons why the same toys are loved and cared for by teens and adults. There is always a kid in every adult. There is nothing wrong with having dolls, stuffed toys, puzzles, cars now that you are old. Many admit that kids' toys are toys for all ages; it's the memories and the comfort they bring that makes them wanted by children, teenagers, and adults alike.
