No matter what kind of the toys you want, you can look around and get what you want.For so many people now adore toys, and most young humans have been observed to play with whatever they can find, turning such things as foods, books, and towel into toys. So today let me tell you something about the history of the toy. Toys and games have been created from the sites of ancient civilizations. The earliest toys were made from materials found in nature like stone, wood. Thousands of years ago, Egyptian children played with dolls that had wigs and movable limbs which were made from stone, pottery, and wood. In Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome, children played with dolls made of wax or terracotta, sticks, bows and arrows, and yo-yos. When Greek children, especially girls, came of age it was customary for them to sacrifice the toys of their childhood to the gods. On the eve of their wedding, young girls around fourteen would offer their dolls in a temple as a rite of passage into adulthood.As technology changed and civilization progressed, toys also changed. Grass modern toys are often made from plastic, cloth, and synthetic materials. Ancient toys were often made by the parents and family of the children who used them, or by the children themselves. Modern toys, in contrast, are often mass-produced and sold in stores.And also in the modern world, there are so numerous kinds of toys for kids to choose, and more and more intelligence.
