A toy is anything that can be used in play. Toys are usually associated with children and pets, but it is not unusual for adults and some other animals to play with toys. An example of this is a dolphin being trained to nudge a ball through a hoop. Many items are designed to serve as toys, but goods produced for other purposes can also be used. For instance, a small child may pick up a household item and "fly" it through the air as to pretend that it is an airplane. Or, an animal might play with a pinecone by batting at it, biting it, chasing it, or by tossing it around. Another consideration is interactive digital entertainment, such as a video game. Some toys are produced primarily as collector's items and are intended for display only.

The origin of toys is prehistoric; dolls representing infants, animals, and soldiers, as well as representations of tools used by adults are readily found at archaeological sites. The origin of the word "toy" is unknown, but it is believed that it was first used in the 14th century.

Toys, and play in general, are important when it comes to growing up and learning about the world around us. The young use toys and play to discover their identity, help their bodies grow strong, learn cause and effect, explore relationships, and practice skills they will need as adults. Adults use toys and play to form and strengthen social bonds, teach, remember and reinforce lessons from their youth, discover their identity, exercise their minds and bodies, explore relationships, practice skills, and decorate their living spaces.

What is the best toys to get my baby for his first Christmas?
Q. I want to get him a toy box for future toys and he won't mind getting that instead of a toy. I just don't know whats the best for toys. I get confused everytime we go to the toy department. The problem we have is that he'll be 1 year old only a month later so its hard to get him 12 month toys for his first christmas and then older toys only a month later. At this point he usually likes the packaging more than whats in it.

A. For my son's first Christmas, we gave him diapers. =) Don't worry so much about the ages listed on boxes. My son plays with just about anything that we help him find interesting. Even if the toy says "18 months" there will be plenty that he will find interesting. Really you only need to watch out for small parts he can swallow or moving parts that can pinch. Other than that, find something that you think fits his personality- animals, trucks, etc- and let him figure it out in his own time. Also, books are always good. Even if they seem old, they always grow into them. Kids love pictures, plus you can feel like you're helping them learn. OH- and if they make noise, make sure they have an OFF button. Rule number 1!!! Right now,… [cont.]

What are the different sex toys that commonly found at market ?
Q. Please suggest me the sex toys that we can easily find from market. From where can I get most of the sex toys.
Asked by Rahul - Tue Jun 1 07:15:09 2010 - - 8 Answers - 2 Comments

A. Not sure what "market" you are asking about. If you are asking a super market (w/food) I would say bananas, squash, cucumber, zukini, etc... But if your talking about a sex-shop...go look for these items: For Her: Clit tickler (vibrates and has tlittle "ticklers" that extend from the top) For Him/Her: Anal beads, fruity lubes, whips, swings, the **Liberator**, lingerie. For Him: Penis ring (goes around the base of the shaft to numb penis so as not to prematurely ejaculate.

Who believes recalled toys will be sent by Mattel and sold in other countries?
Q. With soo many recalled defective and lead contaminated toys, isn't it posible that they toy stores and manufacturers will just gather them up and send them to some other countries and harm their kids. Some investigation should be taken into where this harmful toys finally end up.

Toys is a 1992 film about a very large family-owned toy company whose change of management threatens to make it a factory dedicated to producing only violent and war related toys.

General Leland Zevo

  • The future is anarchy! I'm talking about lawlessness. I'm talking about the Lebanons of the future. I'm talking about the breakdown of the whole system. The military defending people against people. You won't get your appropriations waving that flag. There's no glory in that kind of warfare.

Leslie Zevo

  • (commenting on the absurd amount of space the General is taking up for his "production")

He better be making something really cute, or I'm gonna be pissed.
