Classic Childrens Toys That Never Go Out Of Style

toys, playground toys, playtime

As fads come and go new toys will always replace the old ones in popularity. Each new wave of toy or plaything becomes boring and is switched out for the next best thing but there are some toys that never get old. Swing sets are an irreplaceable part of childhood, nothing can stand in for the unparalleled feeling of flying through the sky. Red wagons are another toy that just can’t be replaced. Giving your child a wagon to pull their things around in is not only easier for them but can easily make them the envy of their friends with such a unique toy.

Schools and playgrounds are popular places for swing sets but having one for your yard can be a great way to get your child into exercise and playing outside but will give them something they can do with their friends on play dates. It can teach valuable lessons like working together and taking turns as they play and it will also help to keep them away from the TV or computer and help them to understand that being outside can be just as fun. Swing sets don’t have to be expensive or fancy either, having a plank or tire affixed to a tree is often enough.

Red wagons have been a childhood staple for years. Children with red wagons have something they can pull their toys around in, an impromptu earth mover at the beach or even a quick mode of transportation if they get tired. A red wagon makes a great hand me down generational toy, letting kids know the value of passing on something useful to their own kids one day. Despite how quickly fads can change, there are some toys that never get old.

my new pair of sunglasses

my favorite things, playtime, kids, children products

i have always been fascinated by sunglasses + would spend mornings playing with my mum’s. i called them “wow,”  ’cause every time mum would put them on me, she’d say “wow!” it kind of stuck + i now call every single sunglasses or glasses i see as such, but i guess it’s only because “sunglasses” is just way too complicated for my little tongue to pronounce! 🙂

on one of our previous weekend trips to the mall, we saw these cool mickey mouse shades in one of the displays, mum playfully had me wear one + tita took our photos. i guess the shades really looks good on me that mum bought it. perfect for when we go to the beach or go out on a sunny day.

i hope mum would buy herself a new pair, too. she badly needs a new one, cause i broke her only pair, see. it fell on the floor while i was playing with it one time. maybe she can get the one we saw in one of the shops one time we were out, it looks exactly like mine but just bigger ~ perfect for my mum!

or she would probably check out one of those affordable eyeglasses from that website she was browsing the other day, Zenni Optical. she told me they have a great deal ~ get a free pair of glasses if you get 2 pairs! that is a great deal + will save mum loads amount of money, too!  while she’s at it, she can probably check out their $6.95 prescription eyeglasses, as well, as her old one needs a replacement + she complains of eye strain {from too much time spent in front of the computer} half the time. she said there is just so many affordable, yet functional + stylish eyeglasses to choose from. oh well, maybe you can check it out too + hurry since the offer is only for a limited time + i bet loads of people will be availing this deal.

so, what can you say about my new pair of sunnies? leave a comment or two, will you? i’d love to hear your thoughts! 😉
