Dinosaur Toys
Children are fascinating if you really watch them. The things they find interesting are often the last thing most adults would think about. One thing that my daughter found to be of great interest was a plastic dinosaur she found in a store one day. It was only a dollar, so I bought it for her. She had no idea what it was, but she loved it none the less. She named him "Dino" and he has been a treasured toy ever since that day. I have found that many children love dinosaur toys, even though I'm not sure why.
Many children's entertainers already know that children love dinosaur toys. Barney is a dinosaur, as is Dorothy from The Wiggles. In fact, many shows made for children have a dinosaur of some sorts somewhere, or at least make reference to them once in a while. They have characters, songs, and even skits based on dinosaur toys. Why most children are interested I can't say for certain, but perhaps they appeal to the imagination because they are not something you can go to the zoo to see, or are found hanging out in the backyard, or at least I hope not.
You might even say that dinosaur toys are a good bet when you are not sure what to buy a child as a gift. Though they are often something people get for boys, there are plenty of girls that love them as well. Since my daughter got her first, she has asked for many other dinosaur toys. She uses them in the bath, and in the car on long road trips. She asks for stories about them, and will often pretend that she is one. Most other kids relate when she wants to play pretend with them, as long as someone is a dinosaur.
The best thing about dinosaur toys is that they do not have to be expensive. The simple molded plastic variety are always a huge hit. They don't have to be large, they just have to look like dinosaurs. They are easy to play with, and those they don't do much on their own, children seem to enjoy them anyway. They can use their imagination to make their dinosaur toys do just about anything they want them to do. There are also toys that allow children to build their own dinosaur, or even some that move with the use of a remote. They are all hits for some reason, and even if I can not explain why, I'm just glad that is a gift option I always have to fall back on.
