A Toy Story

We have really got stuck into our new topic this week and began to think about toys and where it all began.  Do you know how long toys have been around?  Do you think they had toys in the war?  Ask your children to tell you about what they have learnt so far.

We talked about the different kinds of toys there are and within a few minutes we had a long list.  We set the children a challenge to name as many toys as they can.  We can't wait to see how many they come up with!

Many examples of toys led to debates about whether they were toys; stickers were a really interesting example and led to a good discussion.

Whatever the toy...one main thing we could spot is how they have changed through time - ever changing technology of materials.  We cannot wait to learn more.
