Are classic toys headed for the trash bin?

Tweet

toys of decades ago are now marching right into the halls of museum. in their stead are sophisticated, energy driven electronic toys. Monopoly, turning 70 years old this year, is seldom played by kids these days. so is Scrabble, now 60 years old. they now have online versions that excites adults more. Trivial Pursuits marked 25 years also with a digital version online. at least Lego blocks are still around after half a century. the revered POGO-stick and stilts are hardly seen today. the worry is that in their place, will the toys be more interactive and educational but not given to a lot of imagination?will the newer crop of toy render children chair-bound and less-physical? are classic toys headed for the trash bin?
