As you may know, my husband collects toys. Our boy will not be allowed to play with most of these toys. I’m sure we’ll have no trouble explaining that to a two-year-old when the time comes…
In wandering around the blogosphere tonight, I came across this post about toys that work, or don’t. By work, I (and she) mean toys that entertain the child for a long period of time. I personally go gaga over those wooden trains at the toy store, so I was sad to see them on the “no-go” list.
I suspect one can get a lot of mileage out of broken remotes, old phones, crumpled paper, and mud. And, I’m sure it has a lot to do with the individual child.
Today in my mom’s group, we were talking about how all the boys’ clothes seem to come in blue with sports logos on them. One mom thought “MVP” was a designer’s name. Would be pretty much a genetic anomaly if our boy came out all sporty, given the artsy-booksy orientation of his parents. But who knows?
