I am a retired teacher and grandparent and find 100 toys exceptional in many ways. The toys are bright ,well made and a source of endless joy to children. The toys are engaging for very young children and as a child's play develops greater sophistication so their use of the toys changes and develops. Children use them in a staggering number of ways ,there are literally no limits to there use in a child's world of imagination. A child's imaginative play unfolds and develops as they use each toy in many different ways. Education through play has been an educational concept for many years and 100 toys supports this on many different levels. They support language development ,creative play and imagination far beyond the basic structure of each toy.
