Toys are one of the things that our kids will surely love. These are
also the things that will definitely catch their attention when they are with
us either in malls or in tiangge.
However, as parent, we must choose the best toys for them like how we
choose our personal things.
There are many guides in buying toys for me just remember the word “D-A-M-S”.
Durable?
You must check for the toys
if they are durable especially when you are buying at tiangge. (Oops! I am not
against buying toys in tiangge.) Check for the buttons and other parts that may
break or snapped during playtime. Choosing the sturdy ones does not only give
safety but it could possibly pass to their siblings.
Appropriate?
We must determine if the
toys fit for their developmental level. Better check the age recommended for
the toy. Furthermore, your kid’s skills and abilities if the toy you want to
buy is suited for them must be put into consideration.
Motivating?
Choosing educational toys is the best thing we can give to our
kids. Try to look for a toy that will enhance their motor, cognitive and
imaginative development.
Safe?
Toys that may give choking hazards must be avoided. Usually the label states where it contains
small part that may cause harm. Remember: reading labels is not bad when
choosing toys for your little ones. One more thing to consider is the size of
the toys. It should be fit with your kid’s size because too big or to heavy
toys may lead to harm if it falls on them.
Again, we must choose the best toys for our kids for it will gave a
great impact on their development.
