can provide an exciting way for
children to discover rhythm and
tone the basic elements of self
made music.
Musical toys can also exert a;
strong influence on youngster's de
sires to play genuine musical in
struments. Quality toy instruments are usu
ally musically "true" and offer
chance for continued exploration
oi musical sounds and rhythm. Mu
sical toys are so popular with
youngsters that the toy trumpet
was the top seller for many years.
Other "pre-band instruments"
include bell sets, wood resonator
blocks and simple drums. Reson
ator blocks are exceptionally ef
fective in teaching rhythm to chil
dren.
Melody instruments comprise an
other group of muscial toys. Ac
tual tunes can be reproduced on
such instruments as the xylophone
and th "c-note" melody flute.
Toy pianos and electric organs
often are used to introduce chil
dren to the keyboard. Toy ukeleles.
guitars, banjos and mandolins
all priced under $10 allow the
child to play simple tunes almost
immediately, and youngsters have
lots of fun with this type of "first
experience."
Whatever th child's choice.
parents will be giving a gift of
music that usually outlasts the
toy instrument by decades.

Books Perfect
When it comes to selecting chil
dren's gifts books at Christmas,
most grown-ups are confused as
to what types of books to choose.
Modern children have been con
ditioned, mainly through television,
to enjoy stories about Wyatt Earp,
tales of outer space, and hair
raising accounts of crime and hor
ror while adults recall their
childhood reading of such tales as
those about Dorothy from the Land
of Oz, Rumpelstiltskin and Aladdin.
ISow the publishers of the Look

by reviving the children s fa
vorites from long ago, as well as

ports Jlelvin Freud, president of
Toy Guidance Council.
Science kits which reproduce fa
mous inventions of the past, such
as Alexander Graham Bell's first
telephone and Edison's electric
light are included in exciting
educational kits.
Dozens of playroom projects
based on electronics can help serve
as stepping-stones for scientific ca
reers later. Other kits reproduce
the manufacture of plastics, and
a new zoom microscope that can
be adapted to viewing large or
small objects will thrill junior bio
logists and other young folk.
Realism brings a new purpose
into play with live action replicas
of building equipment, made of
heavy gauge steel. New thrills
await the operators of a sturdy
new mobile crane complete with
two hand-operated levers that con
trol the operation of the bucket
and that position the boom.
Other new and exciting novel
ties include a hydraulic sanitation
truck; an airlines lift truck, and a
ramp side truck, the latest in light
delivery trucks. New in the indus
trial equipment field is an oil re
fining plant for junior engineers.

Portable Tables
Do Extra Duty
"Portable" dining and snack
time areas are provided for to
day's living, thanks to some talent
ed innovations in table design.
Sucking and nesting tables stay
out of the way until you need them.
Then you pull them out quickly to
give firm footing for a platter full
of turkey or a bowl of popcorn.
You can do the same trick with cof
fee tables, formed of square or
wedge shaped units, that "go to
pieces" on demand.
Tables that "flip" are another
good investment. They include the
game tables that open to double
their size and coffee tables that
flip up to dining level, then open.
A sofa table in an open area make
a good buffet.
