Toys
And Accessories, Toys And Add-ons, When Do You Stop Buying
After buying toys for my kids I am sometimes overwhelmed by how short a time it
takes before the latest toy that they always wanted is discarded. Left for dead
under the bed or tossed into the wardrobe to be forgotten about. Or sometimes,
and these are the times I like, the imagination takes over and the toy is
transformed into something else or combined with other toys.
I have spent countless dollars on little Barbie dresses
and now
Barbie
is
wrapped up in a handkerchief with a shoelace for a belt. I don’t know where
this idea for the latest fashion came from, but then again children see things
differently from us.
This same philosophy of children losing interest is possible behind why the toy
makers are always adding to the existing models.

Barbie has been going for many years and she is always being upgraded with
different accessories. The latest Barbie is a rather elegant model that came out
as the Chinese New Year Barbie with an elegant price to match.
One toy set I like and my kid keeps collecting is the Littlest Pet Shop
This
has been around since the 80’s so now the older stuff would be collector’s
items. There are untold pieces and many different accessories. This little
playset is reasonable priced and buying up the little pets won’t break the
bank. Every time another add-on hits the market there are usually only two new
pets in the box, but on the picture on the box you see pictures of many lovely
little pets.
This is an excellent marketing strategy and should guarantee future sales. But
us parents are at the receiving end.

Parents Do You Want Your Children To Be Better
Readers?
If your children
are having problems at school, it could be because their reading is not up to
par. The problem with reading is that it can affect all subjects, not just
English. Even in Math you have to be able to read the text to understand what to
do.
I know one mother
who helped her daughter from the bottom in her class to the top ten in one term.
Let
me show you how to give your
child a head start with reading and writing.

Looking around the toyshops many different toy sets do the same thing. I suppose
it keeps the children interested and looking forward to something new.
MEGA BLOKS
has many different add-ons for each new series. For example the
Pyrates series has two main boats—Dread Eye’s Phantom and Captain
Cutlass’s Stormstalker. The other main bases for the series are the Pyrates
Cove and the Smuggler’s Fort with the Pyrates Treasure Pack and Pyrates Skull
Cave and any number of figurines as add-ons. So if your little boy falls in love
with the Pyrates there would seem to be a never ending supply of toys to choose
from.
A slight variation on this theme is the classic game, Monopoly
which now has
countless versions all based on the original game. These are not really add-ons
they just make the game more appealing to a wider audience. Instead of just the
property game, now you can get dinosaur, cat, car and sports monopoly along with
scenery and fishing and many more.
If you are a dinosaur fan, then Dinosaur Monopoly to find out if you end up
extinct or not, is the game for you.
Kids love new things, especially popular toys they can show off to their
friends. But we parents have to fork out our hard earned cash. I must admit in
most cases I do it willingly because I like to see my kid happy. Now I’m
starting to check myself and before I buy I like to think my money is going to
good use. So if I buy one in a series and the kid does not play with it I do not
buy anymore, despite the tantrums.
When we parents are up against modern advertising and exquisite packaging
designs we have no chance. So the best weapon we have is to say “NO” and
mean it.
