How To Select Christmas Toys

For parents and grandparents, much of the happiness of Christmas morning is the excitement of youngsters opening their gifts. The squeals of delight that accompany the unwrapping of each present are a rich reward for family Santas who spent hours selecting the just-right toy. For the preschooler himself, the rewards go far beyond the holiday morning, for well-chosen toys help him leam-while-playing throughout the year. —Choose toys in bright primary colors (red, blue, yellow, green,) which are also pleasant to the touch and sight. Wood, for example, has “warmth,” solid feel and texture that are satisfying to the preschooler. —Toys should be portable enough to satisfy the child’s insatiable desire to move and carry, but neither the toys themselves nor their parts should be so small that they defy a small hand to work them. —Toys should be durably and soundly constructed so that they withstand a child’s vigorous use. They should be safe, with wellfinished edges and non-toxic paints. —Youngsters like to see how a toy works, to satisfy their curiosity about what makes it go. If the toy is designed to be taken apart, it should be easy for the child to put it together again. —Preschoolers need—and prefer—toys such as blocks, wagons, pounding benches, and disc stacks which can be “imagined into” many different play situations, rather than toys which merely recreate the adult world in miniature or toys which are electrically operated. —The preschool child needs a variety of playtools. His toy “Wardrobe” should encourage the development of all of his senses, permitting him to exercise his skills, muscles, emotions, and imagination.
