Hi everyone, It is my belief that toys have a great influence on children's development. The problem is that how we can choose toys suitable for them. Some toys can help children's brain develop quickly, while some might destroy their internal ability. Many scientists have shown that children might become violent if everyday they play with guns, tanks, etc, and I totally agree with them. Therefore, it is advisable for parents to be careful when selecting toys for their children. My brother has two nice "angels", and certainly I often buy presents for them on special events. I highly appriciate the intellect of LEG0- toys. I think LEGO-toys are very useful for improving children's imagination. With some colourful pieces of LEGO toys my brother's older sister can sit for hours to image and creat many things such as houses, train, bus, etc which are usually considered as marvelous "masterpices" by her. However, it should be noted that LEGO toys should only be given for children who are over two years old whose brains are mature enough to image. My brother's three-year-old daughter is also keen on learning how to count and do some simple calculations, therefore i often buy some thin books including number for them. Sometimes i select colourful pictures of animals, flowers or other objects like square, ovan, tangle, etc; with a view to helping my niece be able to realize the diffrences beetween them. Along with books and pictures in my opinion, VCD, CD music also play an important role in improving children's memory because they often tend to copy what they see and listen on TV. I believe that the children will feel music better if they are exposed to it at early age. Finally, I would like to say that children can become much smarter than we expecte if they are taught and brought in right ways in early childhood.
