Choosing toys for children, those misconceptions you don't know
2025-11-14 17:20
There is a saying that goes: only buy the right, not the expensive.
Most people believe that the more expensive something is, the better.
Although it cannot be denied that toys with slightly higher prices tend to have slightly better quality compared to toys with lower prices. But that doesn't mean all expensive toys are better.
We should choose toys for children based on their age and personality traits.
Because I'm not sure how old your child is currently, but I can give you some informative advice.
Several guidelines to follow when selecting toys:
1. Choose the appropriate type of toy based on the child's age
If it is a younger child, try not to buy string beads, paint, crayons, and all toys that may cause safety hazards. For example, children who are only 8 months to 1 year old are in the sensitive period of their hands and mouth. If parents buy small particles of beads, paints, and other toys for their children, the children will easily put them in their mouths, and the small particles of beads will be easily swallowed. However, paints, crayons, and other things are easy to eat or get into the eyes, which is very harmful to the health and safety of the children.
2/The material and safety of toys must meet the standards
Many children's toys are made of plastic. Plastic can be divided into many types. It is not recommended for mothers to buy toys for their children at roadside stalls, as it does not mean that low-priced toys are bad. But many toys at roadside stalls are not packaged, and some even have no manufacturer or date. The lack of a certificate of conformity and whether the toys produced by the manufacturer are qualified and can be used by children are major issues.
Especially for plastic toys, toys without manufacturers are likely to be made from recycled plastic waste. This type of plastic will seriously exceed the lead content. The harm to children's health is very significant.
I have seen many children who are active, not fond of eating, and always love to eat their fingers or strange things, all due to excessive lead content. A large part of the reason is that children are exposed to toys with excessive lead content for a long time.
3/Do not buy toys for children that lack creativity and rigidity.
Many children like those glowing toys, or toys that can run, sing, and walk by turning on the switch.
But personally, it is not recommended for parents to buy such toys for their children. These toys, which can run, emit light, and sing as long as they are equipped with batteries, are actually very detrimental to children's brain development and growth.
Because playing with these toys does not require any mental effort and is also very convenient for children. Just turn on the switch and watch the toy sing, dance, move forward, and back on its own, without the need for children to use their hands or brains. Why did you buy such toys again? Is it purely for children to have fun?
