A Look Back at Some of The Best Toys Ever

New toys are made every single day and old toys have to make way for them. Gone are the simple, handcrafted toys that lasted a good 10 years and in their place have come the technically advanced all-singing, all dancing gadgets that are lucky to survive for a couple of days in a child’s hands.  Let’s take a look at some of the most iconic traditional toys and why they were loved so much

Rag dolls. There is something very satisfying about a toy so simple. A whole generation were brought up on them and they went everywhere with their owners. Among their most appealing features was the ability to wash them simply by dunking them in warm water and not having to worry about bits breaking or falling off. Nowadays kids prefere babies with electrically moving parts and voices. These cannot be washed using the same method but I would encourage you to give it a go.

Wooden bikes. Bikes these days are pretty much all made out of metal or plastic as these are generally the cheapest options for production. There is no beating however a bike that has been loving crafted out of good hardwood. They didn’t break down anywhere near as much as modern bikes do and the aging wooden looked beautiful.Often people used these wooden bikes as pieces of furniture and they just fitted in with character of most houses

Rocking horses. Due to their brilliant design and stunning hand crafted looks, a wooded rocking horse lasts for decades and looked again looked great as a feature in a room. The best bit about a rocking horse however is that you can buy your daughter what she has always dreamed of,  without having to hire stables and muck it out every day. Rocking horse manufacture has slowed down a great deal in the last 10 years, but you can still find some quality ones in some good shops.
