Age, Safety Factors
In Selection of Toys
By ESTHER KIRMIS
With Santa Claus breathing
down our neck these days we
begin scratching our heads
about what to give the kiddies
for Christmas. What are the best
kinds of toys to buy for child
ren? According to the article in
the December "Good Housekeep
ing" authorities say that the
primary consideration should be
given to the child's age and to
toys which are not dangerous
for him to handle.
Experts concerned with the
safety and creative use of toys
suggest these general rules to be
followed in selecting toys for
different age groups.
Infants: Babies under one like
things with bright colors, shapes
they can explore and textures
they can feel. Such toys Include
stuffed animals and dolls, squeek
toys, sturdy rattles, balls and
even nonbreakable cups or other
smooth objects. Infants chew,
drop and bang these toys. There
fore, they should be washable,
non-breakable and have no
sharp edges.
One to Two: A child now in
vestigates things around him.
Like infants, toddlers put al
most everything into t h e 1 r
mouths. Playthings that can be
taken apart and put together
easily (such as nests of blocks
or boxes), pogboards and push
pull toys are suitable. Stuffed
animals and dolls, bath toys,
blocks with round corners, a
sandbox with digging toys, small
chair and table and small wheel
toys are also fine.
Two to Three: These children
are more experimental. Things
which lo build and toys that can
be shared are desirable. These
include building blocks, wooden
animals, kiddie cars or tri
cycles, finger paints made from
fruit or vegetable coloring, mod
eling clay, cars and wagons,
wheelbarrows, rocking horses,
picture books and crayons. Itid
inc tovs should be low and tip-
proof. Be sure toys are not sharp
or pointed.
Three to Four: This is an imi
talive age.Toys which encourage
make-believe aid in learning
Toys should be sturdy. In this
group are small brooms, doctor's
or nurses kit, toy ensues, paini
ine sets and construction toys.
For general fun, a wading pool
may be useful in warm weather
but water should be shallow ami
nlav sunervised at all times,

Costumes, which are nonflam
mable, are popular at this age.
Wooden trains are suggested.
Elect r.cal toys, though, are not
recommended.
Four to Six: Children begin
to read; becomes more complex.
Dolls and dollhouses, games,
craft and construction sets,
blackboards, paints, blocks, hand
puppets and mechanical action
toys dump trucks, etc., please
this group: Play equipment such
as jump ropes, rubber balls,
scooters, slides and swings serve
increasing skills. Shooting toys
and tricycles or wagons that can
tip over easily snouiu ne avuiutu.
Six to EiEht: Skills are devel
oping. Sewing materials, carpen
ter tools or science toys are pop
ular. Sleds, skates, piaygrounu
equipment, kites and complex
pnnt runt inn sets can be used.
Kits for playing store and simple
lectrical toys are aiso suggests.
Skates should have sott anxie
pads and be sturdy.
Eight to Ten: Hobbies develop.
Minimi huild ne sets ana more
complicated tools can be used.
The National Safety Council rec
ommends that a bicycle or an
electric train should not be given
heforo a child is eight. Lrau anu
simple camera equipment, coin
and stamp collection material
can he given, miuien nuw uc
come keenly interested in sports
equipment, gloves, Dans, oats,
fishing rods, rackets. Musical in
struments, books on history and
biography, games of skill, gym
nntmraius. nuzzles and small
phonographs are good for this
age. The most important con
sideration in buying a bicycle
is that it is the right size tor
the child and not one 'to grow
into."
Over Ten: Flay habits, hobbies
and sports learned as youngsters
ontinue t0 develop in uie iceiis.
There is a growing interest in
competition and skill porlection
(arpherv sets. tartrot snoouiiK
and dart games.) Toys powereu
with fuels and chemicals, such
as rockets, should be supervised
in their use. use oi cnemisuy
sets snouiu aiso ue sujvwu
and the directions that come
with them followed. These gifts
should match the interest of the
teenager.
Do not burden a child with
too many toys which require
adult supervision. lie should
have a variety of playthings,
mostly of a kind he can safely
play with himself.

Since children often form deep emotional attachments to toys,
psychologists advise against giving them playthings that are
easily broken. Rugged, durable steel toys like these trucks are
strong enough to take generations of rough play. Years from now,
a fresh coat of paint on these sturdy steel trucks will make them
good as new ready for a younger brother or cousin, or even a son.
