Why are toys important to children’s development?
-Emotional development
Toys can improve children’s creativity and help them express their emotions (internal and external).
Whether through role-playing (playing different roles, using costumes, etc.) or dolls, children can imagine familiar scenes (playing a house, spending a day at the farm, going to the hospital…) or creating fantasy that guides the children to abstraction The world (action characters, science fiction world…) The ability to produce symbolic games reveals a mature personality and the ability to create its own rules. Many times, adults tend to recognize the word toy as “something they sell in the store”, but on the other hand, children think that toys are the objects they play with. These objects can be real things, such as a set of keys, a pot, and a roll of toilet paper, or they can be deformed, such as clay, plasticine, and paint. These tools all help teach children how to make decisions because they help stimulate their imagination and at the same time create a world where they can play.
– Social development
In addition to improving children’s language skills, toys also teach social skills, allowing them to
understand the society in which they live. Toys invite children to interact, first with adults, and then with other children of the same age. The simple act of playing with another child challenges them to experience situations that require learning important lessons: respect, cooperation, and sharing. Toys can also stimulate children’s initiative, learn to negotiate and teach them how to organize better.

What we know about toys
The most important attribute of a toy is that it can engage parents or caregivers with children in a warm and interesting interaction full of rich language, supporting the parent-child relationship and the child’s social emotional and cognitive language development. High-quality toys can be useful “props” that promote interesting interactions, and provide parents and children with a common focus of development and participation.
Toys that promote pretense together (for example, dolls, characters, and animals) can promote the use of words and narratives to describe feelings and emotions. Imaginative games with such toys can also support language development, self-regulation, and social and emotional development.
Playing with toys such as building blocks and puzzles can support fine motor skills, cognitive and language development, and early spatial skills and mathematics. Since the rules are usually negotiated, the use of toys such as balls in sports activities can support gross motor development, self-regulation, and peer interaction.

Compared with “playing things to lose one’s ambition”, it seems that babies have more benefits to play with animation toys. Therefore, it is recommended that moms and dads buy more toys for their children to exercise their abilities in all aspects.
Besides, how old the child is. You can’t let him become a little old man and pedantic at a young age. The child should have more fun at the age of play. After all, the combination of work and rest is the right thing to do. And baby playing with anime toys may not be really “lost”, maybe they can do a lot!
