How did you choose the toys for your youngsters this Christmas? A New York toy manufacturer declares that only a few parents will select the proper playthings for their children each Christmas. Most, he said, buy toys that please themselves, rather than the children. The man, who owns a company that makes creative playthings, warns that "gadgety" toys may be harmful and frustrating. And, he adds, children quickly tire of them. "The best toy a parent can buy," he said, "is a set of plain un painted, wooden unit blocks. Chil dren will use and enjoy them from age 18 months to nine years." He said that girls between age 3 and 7 should have a "doll corner." He said the corner should be sup plied first with a large wooden stove, bed and cupboard. "The doll corner will become the most treasured play place in the little girl's life," he said. He contends boys from ages 2 to 7 mostly enjoy "transportation" play—trucks, cars and boats. There was no statement about what parents should choose at Christmas for the young teen-age boy or girl—in the 13-16 year-old group, whose interests already are deeply grained in social activities, and who prefer parties and dances to play-at-home activities. Perhaps by next year, this manu facturer, or some child psychologist will have solved this problem. BACKED UP . . . What would Christmas be without bright new dollies for little girls to cherish? Giving promise of a goodly crop of dolls for this Christmas are these finished heads on racks in a toy factory, ready t* be given bodies and limbs. Read The Progress for local and current events.
