Why You Shouldn't Buy Your Child Lots of Toys: It's Not About Saving Money
Many parents are sure that having an abundance of toys for their children is a very good thing.
That's why some moms and dads don't spare money on cars, blocks, construction sets, puzzles, etc.
Many toys are actually useful: they develop fine motor skills and also help the child acquire certain knowledge and skills.
And yet, you shouldn't buy too many of these things. Even if the family's financial capabilities allow you to buy everything the baby wants.
Why a child does not need many toys
Three to five toys are enough for a child. But an abundance of such items will not lead to anything good.
Using the same things for games helps develop creative thinking and showcase talents.
In such conditions, the child is forced to independently invent play situations, constantly “turning on” his brain.
Then it will be much easier for the child to study at school. Perhaps he will become an excellent student.
But if a boy or girl gets a new toy every week, their imagination will simply stop “working.”
