If your child has many toys but hardly plays with them, it is because they are not the right toys for him. Toys are usually fun for a while, but very soon they get too predictable. That ends up boring children and children… they don't like to be bored! The best toys are those that require imagination and can be used in various ways. Here are ten toys that are good for keeping your child's attention… and they won't get tired of them.
Blocks
Blocks are a staple for children and never seem to bore them. They are one of the simplest types of toys out there, however their possibilities are limited only by the child's imagination. Younger children can also use them for learning activities like counting games and experimenting with basic addition and subtraction. Blocks provide numerous learning opportunities and keep children busy.
Dolls and stuffed animals
Children love to pretend that their dolls, action figures and stuffed animals are real figures, they give them life themselves. This can provide hours of entertainment. They can even play with two or more at the same time, making different voices for each one. It's not just fun for them, it's fun for you to watch as well.
Play doh
Similar to blocks, Play-Doh allows children to do anything they can imagine. The factories and toolkits you can buy to go along with it are nice, but not a necessity.
Material for making crafts
Children can spend hours creating new masterpieces. Art is a great way to keep kids busy because it fosters creativity and self-esteem. You will also have a totally exclusive decoration for your home and created by your children!
Musical instruments
Most children love music. The only thing better than listening to it is doing it themselves. If real musical instruments are not an option, there are toy drum sets, xylophones, guitars, and many more that children can play with. They could even get other children together and form a marching band.
Toy cleaning or gardening tools
Children love to imitate adults. A kitchen set, a toy vacuum cleaner, or a set of gardening tools can help them do this more precisely. You can also tell them to 'help you' with household chores when you are doing them. Your children will be entertained and also feel that they help you.
Sand
A sandbox full of toys offers a myriad of opportunities. Children can learn a lot by playing in the sand. They can use sticks to make designs, add water and make sand castles, or make paths for their toy cars.
Balls
The balls cannot be missing! Children love balls and it also helps them encourage physical activity. Balls and balls of all sizes and textures are ideal for children to play with, and magically, They never tire of them!
