Toys in the Early 1900s

The early 1900s were very different from today. Toys, though they have evolved in many ways, were still the delight of children everywhere. Explore the history of toys, as charted by the History website.

Theodore Roosevelt's Presidency marks the beginning of the "Teddy Bear." In the year 1902, toy bears were named "Teddy" after the president's nickname. The Teddy Bear became known world wide, and is still known and loved today. It was only a few years later when the Teddy Bears were mass produced.

Toys

Crayola crayons were made for the first time ever in 1903 by Edwin Binney and C. Harold Smith.

In 1913, an item called the Erector Set was invented. It was a steel, motorized toy that children could use to build models of just about anything. Its creator was A.C. Gilbert, a medical doctor.

Charles Pajeau created a similar wooden set called Tinker Toys in the year 1914. Tinker Toys was made for younger children.

Raggedy Ann dolls first came on the scene after newspaper cartoonist Johnny Gruelle reproduced the doll he made for his daughter. That was in 1915.

The following year, an architect's son named John Lloyd Wright, invented Lincoln Logs, which were interlocked to make structures.

Polystyrene was invented in 1927, and it is the kind of plastic that was used for making toys in the early days.

Two years after Mickey Mouse was created (which was in 1928), stuffed Mickey Mouse dolls were made by Charlotte Clark. This was the start of Disney merchandise.

The yo-yo became popular in the United States after Donald Duncan bought a yo-yo company in 1929.

Scrabble was developed from a game called Criss Cross, invented by Alfred M. Butts in 1931. It became known as Scrabble after James Brunot bought the rights from Butts, and trademarked the game with this new name. Now more than a million Scrabble games are purchased every year in North America.

In 1935, the Parker Brothers introduced Monopoly. This game is so popular today that there are many different clones of this game, many of which are just as popular.

The View-Master, a three dimensional viewer was developed by a camera enthusiast named William Gruber. The toy became popular when Gruber licensed Disney characters to make still, 3-D images from Disney movies and television programs.

Finally, in 1940, model airplanes were mass produced. They started out as a way for manufacturers to sell planes to the military, but later caught on as a toy.

The toys that we know and love today have had their roots from these ancient times. Isn't it interesting to know that if it weren't for all these creative people most of the games you know today, would never have been?

Different Types of Baby Toys

There are so many kinds of baby toys to choose from. But the most important thing to consider when picking a baby toy is how much enjoyment it will give to the child. The physical appearance of the toy, its shape, color, and texture, determines how engaged and delighted the baby will be with his/her toy, which will allow the mother to prepare his/her food and complete other tasks, like household chores, etc. The toys should also introduce the baby to the basic concepts of shape and color. Baby toys are usually labeled according to age groups and this also helps the parent decide which toys are ideal for their child. As with any other purchase for the baby's needs, safety of the baby should always be the foremost consideration. Make sure that the material the toy is made of is not hazardous to the baby's health and that the toy itself is safe to play with, i.e., no sharp edges or not too small.

Aside from pure enjoyment, baby toys should be educational, too. Puzzles are very ideal educational toys because they promote mental coordination and problem solving skills of the baby. The baby also learns more about different images, like their shapes and colors. Puzzles have different difficulty levels depending on the baby age groups; but the kind of puzzle that's right for the baby is also dependent on the baby's own skills. There are babies who can solve puzzles with higher difficulty levels than their own. Other educational toys introduce the concepts of letters and numbers. Sometimes, these toys also include musical and lighting features to make them more stimulating for and interesting to the baby. In addition to piquing the baby's interest, the baby also gets familiarized with simple musical notes.

Toys

Even at a very young age, some toys are made specific for boys and girls. Generally, baby boys play with construction toys and baby girls with doll houses. But babies do not really understand the differences between the two and would be more than happy to play with either one or both. More often than not, babies play pretend games when they use their doll houses or construction toys. When baby boys play with their sister's or friend's doll houses, for example, they usually play a special role in the pretend game. Simple building blocks are one of the most popular construction toys that can also be used for babies' pretend games. Babies can enjoy endless hours building pyramids with their blocks, knocking them over, and then building them again.

Another favorite that has withstood the test of time is the rocking horse. These are very simple toys for baby but they never fail to captivate the baby's imagination and take him/her away as far as his/her imagination would go. Stuffed character toys, which are usually soft, fluffy, and cuddly versions of animals, like the teddy bear, are perfect companions for babies. They rouse feelings of intimacy and comfort and almost always become the child's friends for years.

Why Wooden Toys Are Better Than Plastic Toys For Children

Children wooden toys are toys which are made using a natural product as opposed to a product like plastic which is a product that we are trying to recycle but nevertheless remains a product which costs less to produce new than to recycle. If a wooden toy is made from a sustainable forest that's even better as it is actually helping out our troubled environment. This is only one of the reasons we feel better towards wood than towards plastic. There are also many emotional reasons why wooden toys feel better.

When it comes to plastic toys and wooden toys, there is more of a chance that plastic toys will be purchased. However, consumers don't seem to consider buying a wooden toy for their child instead. In a few ways, it would be more worth the while to get. How many times have we been told that a plastic or a painted toy is safe, only to see it recalled or find out it has lead in the paint or is unsafe for any number of reasons? This holds especially true for very small children and babies. These little ones will be putting whatever they play with in their mouths. Plastics, painted toys and metals certainly are not high on the list of things you want in their mouth.

Toys

If we are considering the environment and the ultimate destination for many toys (which is landfill) then wood is clearly the better material. If we are thinking about robustness and the resilience of the material to the treatment that toys receive at the hands of their owners then both materials can perform well, depending upon the toy.

Let's think of a few differences between the two. Plastic toys can break easily and the edges could harm little children. Wooden toys, on the other hand, are more durable. If you were to stand on a toy truck made of plastic, there is a great chance that it will break, possibly leaving sharp edges that could cut your child leaving it fit only for the rubbish bin. Wooden toys on the other hand encourage your kids to use their creativity, when either they make the toys themselves or play with them. Simple activities such as making cookies at their own toy kitchen, or riding a wooden Arabian horse and so on, boost their creativity and visualization.

Wood is a natural made material which can be subjected to recycling. This means that aside from providing entertainment for your child, you can also pro actively help in preventing further degradation of the environment. Moreover, children appear to be more attached to playing with wooden toys. Wooden toys are also more durable than their plastic or metal counterparts. Thus with proper care, it is possible to make these toys last an entire childhood and maybe even hand them down to their children.

Play is an essential part of every kids learning and emotional development. Wooden toys are a sensible choice for the very young. Children wooden toys include toys such as miniature farm animal sets for infants and doll houses for young girls. Many wooden toys are also educational toys for young school children, such as puzzles, building blocks, and more. To touch and explore is often considered as one of the most important aspects of most educational programs that help a child develop different capabilities. Letting your kids play with wooden toys would unmistakably encourage them to learn by touching and exploring. Moreover, you could even purchase wooden toys and games specially meant to educate the children.

Plastic toys come in all shapes and sizes so there are bound to be lots of brightly coloured playthings that attract the attention of your child, no matter how old they are. They are durable, washable and usually pretty safe, but as with all toys there are toy safety checks to watch out for when you are buying the perfect toy for your child. You probably wonder why parents opt to offer their children the common wooden type of toys instead of the cheaper plastic toys commonly produced in China. Many consider that having plastic toys is more practical than wooden toys because of the cost factor. Although plastic toys are cheaper compared to wooden toys, long term consideration proves that the latter is better than the former.

Have you ever seen a child in a room full of the latest toys and found the child to be playing with old fashioned children wooden toys that were a big hit when you were young? What is it about this sight that is so comforting? Is it because the wooden toy makes us feel nostalgic or is there something else at play here? In our world of plastic throw-away goods it is comforting to see lasting goods lasting. It is especially comforting to see goods which are felt to be worthy enough to be passed on from generation to generation. The latest gadget or the latest toy has not made traditional wooden toys any less desirable to children, or even to adults for that matter.

Online toy stores offer a wide variety of wooden toys to choose from. And sometimes, it's easier to find what you want because modern toy stores these days mostly sell plastic toys.
