Games and toys

The school is over and there will be many parents, grandparents and uncles who will now spend the whole day with their children, grandchildren or nephews. Something that is lucky, though tiring. Because the first days are not usually a problem, you have to adjust to being together all day, new routines and a lot of plans to do.

There are many toys that have become famous throughout the world and that are part of the catalog of our children and, in many cases, that we had when we were little. We know them on the outside because we all know that a toy, on the inside, usually has nothing (for what?). A father, a designer, decided one day to devote part of his time to creating sculptures that show the inside of the toys.

Tired of never finding dolls that resemble their children, a group of parents of children with disabilities, started a Facebook campaign to get companies to start manufacturing toys with which their children could feel identified. That's how Like Me was born, a campaign that promotes the sale of toys with disabilities.

Makies is a British custom doll manufacturing company designed to be similar to the girls and boys to whom they are intended. Moved by the #ToyLikeMe campaign that promotes greater integration in toys, they have designed dolls that have scars and use hearing aids.

Today, May 28, International Game Day is celebrated, a date to highlight the importance of the game in the lives of our children. There is no doubt that children have to play, because it is theirs, they are programmed for it. During his first years the human being puts into practice his playful abilities to better understand the world around him.

Now that the good weather arrives, the days lengthen and with children's vacations getting closer, we look for ideas to play outdoors with the children. The house falls on us and it is time to move and have fun in an active way, with traditional games that we may have forgotten and other more innovative ones that will surprise you.

The days get longer, the temperatures are more pleasant and you don't feel like staying at home. The good weather arrives and it is time to play in the street with the children, an open space that fills the senses and stimulates the little ones to learn and have fun. We are not referring only to the park, although it is true that the streets of the cities are not prepared for children to play because there are several dangers (and, because in general, they do not think about them), mainly traffic.

One of the most important activities for a child is to play: through it he discovers the world around him, stimulates his creativity and helps strengthen his personality. One of the things we have to keep in mind as parents is that there are toys that bring specific benefits and that knowing them can help them move forward in a slightly easier and more fun way in their development.

The little ones enjoy music and are born programmed by the dance, that's why there are many applications that stimulate them. But it is very interesting that they themselves create their own music. But we can't always have a musical instrument at hand (although many objects become them), so again technology makes it a bit easier for us.

"If they find it, they will play with it," the campaign has been developed by Evolve, a US association that promotes the safe and responsible use of weapons and is one of the funniest and best-made campaigns I've seen in some time. , it is not surprising that it has gone viral in a short time and it is that despite the humor it makes very clear what happens when we do not conveniently keep our things and we know very well that then the accidents arrive.

One of the first things that changes in a house with children, apart from the "tidy house" concept, is the music that you listen to most of the time you are with your children. You will go from having in the home or television player a variety of genres of your favorite groups to a more or less endless list of children's songs that will take several months to distinguish one from the other and that are sung by people always happy and smiling.

If there is a world that has entered very strongly in that of our little ones, it is the digital world, so much is its influence that we are not likely to recognize the world in which our grandchildren live and like our parents today we feel completely lost with all those "pots" that children handle.

With winter and bad weather, we may have been forced to stay at home on more than one occasion. What could be a joke or a boredom can become a lot of fun. If we stay at home today, we can practice some of these fun and simple games, which do not need much preparation.

From the deepest part of the galaxy, on a very distant planet called Australia, is the hangar where these wonders of intergalactic navigation are built. Fearless pilots are able to fight against the forces of the Empire. Attention future rebel pilots, your x-wing is ready to take off This wooden rocker, sorry, I meant space hunting is built by steveswoodentoys, an Australian company specializing in the manufacture of wooden toys for children.

One of the most anticipated days for children is approaching: the arrival of the Magi full of gifts. Some have already had a snack at Christmas, but the main course arrives on January 6 when when they get up they find the gifts they have asked for in their letters (or not). The requests that children make to His Majesties of the East are varied.

A few days ago we gave you some safety recommendations for the toys we bought at Christmas. One of them is to verify that the article bears the CE mark of European Conformity that guarantees the manufacturer's commitment that it meets all European requirements and conformity assessments.

Children learn to use a tablet before they start talking. They entertain themselves with games of lights and sounds that attract their attention and one that they will love is BabyPhone, a safe application for the little ones that simulates a phone, a classic toy that always catches the attention of children.

Since I have children I have come to realize that every Christmas there is one or more toys that are exhausted to the point of despair to parents, who fail to find what their children ask for in their letters from Santa Claus or the Kings. If a few years ago this toy was the house of Mickey Mouse, the following year it was the turn of the Monster High and the next year that of Peppa Pig.

Safety is essential when talking about Christmas gifts. It is not enough that the toy is beautiful or the child comes asking for it from the summer. First of all, at Christmas and always buy safe toys. There are certain recommendations that you cannot ignore when choosing a toy. Not only for guaranteeing children's fun, but mainly for their safety.
