Long ago, children played with many fun toys, just like you do! Instead of using batteries or screens, their toys were often made from wood, cloth, or even corn husks. Kids loved to spin colorful wooden tops and play with shiny marbles. Some children had special dolls made of wood or soft fabric that they played with every day.
Playing outside was a favorite part of the day for children long ago! They would roll big wooden hoops with a stick or skip rope with their friends in the sunshine. They also played games like “Tag” and “Hide and Seek” in their yards. These toys and games are very old, but they are still a lot of fun to play today. It is fun to think about how children played in the past!
