What is toys?

Toys are fun things you play with to imagine new worlds and have lots of laughs.

Imagine you're sitting on the floor with a box full of blocks, those colorful squares or rectangles that stack up like little towers. That’s a toy! It helps your brain grow because you’re trying to make bigger shapes, taller buildings, or even pretend they are spaceships heading off into the stars. Blocks help you think about how things fit together.

Toys can be anything that makes playing easier and more fun. A ball is a toy, you kick it, throw it, or roll it to your friend. A doll is a toy, you dress it up, talk to it, or even give it a bath. Some toys are just like your favorite snack: you can eat them (like gummy bears), but they're also fun to play with.

Toys help you learn and grow while having fun, just like how playing with your friends helps you become better at sharing and taking turns.
