Today, my daughter and I went out to buy some toys..
I was really cautious about the suggested age label and was very keen on checking on every toy my kid picks up..
so we ended up buying a magnetic drawing board..
So are guys as cautious as I was? share your thought...

I let my kids choose their toys. And then if its expensive i will explain to them that i cant afford it. And if its too complicated for their age i will explain how to play it and i let them decide if they still want to buy it. Or if it is a boring toy for younger age i will also explain it to them.

I am very careful what I buy for my granddaughter. They don't have a large house somIngo for one quality thing instead of lots of things. She is 2 and really into cars and trucks so I got her a well-made wooden carvtoy made in Germany. I hope it will last well and she can give it to her children too.

My children's favourite toys were often the box the toy came in. Toys were selected for their play value and durability. Duplos/Legos are still played with....but now by my grandchildren. Many of the toys my children played with are experiencing a second debut with the grandkids. I must have chosen well. The toys are still going strong.

Being cautious is just the proper thing to do because some of the toys are hazardous to children.

Children know what they need, we have to follow their needs and make them make right decision in picking it. Sometimes I behave like kid and choose toys that I am going to play with. I have two small kids and I am very happy to play together with them.
