Hello to all! Let me introduce myself, I am a student at Western
Michigan
University studying Industrial Design. I am currently working on a toy
design/redesign. The toy is to be for children from birth to 2 years
old.
The possibilities are pretty endless. I am asking all parents to share
their
advice in designing a toy. What do children like? What do they
dislike?
What do you look for when purchasing a toy? Any feedback would be
greatly
appreciated.


how about getting off your duff and arranging to observe a pre-school
group of 2 year olds?

Hey what's wrong with asking on a newsgroup. He might be going to a
Preschool as well but might as well ask us experts. I don't mind answering
it'll only take a moment.

My two year old likes Playmobile, realistic little people animals etc.. he
makes up stories. He loves dolls houses, toy cars anything mini really. He
also loves things he can crash around on or in and push over like empty
boxes or the couch cushions. Things that make a noise or play music,
anything that has a purpose like a torch or bag. It's a real make beleive
age.
