Today is seeing a resurgence of interest & popularity in wooden toys, which retain attractiveness in their durability & quaintness – qualities which plastic simply cannot match. Similarly, wooden toys provide mental stimulation in a way that computer games, despite their enormous success, cannot. Wooden toys are less interactive & have less movement & detail than plastic toys, but this is not their disadvantage; on the contrary, it is exactly these features which encourage children to use their imaginations in order to make more of the toy. Furthermore, it is predominantly toys made out of wood which are designed especially to provide cognitive benefits: just think about wooden alphabet blocks or shape sorting games. Wooden toys have diversity unparalleled by other toys because they offer both fun & learning. & it is parents’ growing recognition of this that has led them to increasingly return to wooden toys, a once lost phenomenon which is now an ever growing trend.
