The toys children play with often reflect the adult world in which they live. In days gone by, when adults worked hard and enjoyed relatively few amusements, toys were few and simple. Playing games in early America taught children physical dexterity,
how to solve problems, and how to follow directions and rules.
Children also learned to be kind, to wait their turn, and to
use their imagination. |
