Big boys have their PCs and cars and big girls have their bags and diamonds. How about the little ones? What toys should parents and care givers give them?
During our review in NGD (Normal Growth and Development), our lecturer identified different types of toys for children aged 0 - 6 years old.
They are as follows:
