Some of my children’s favorite toys are actually not toys at all. As a matter of fact, it is quite frustrating when I find them with adult “toys” in their hands wondering what in the heck they are going to do. Yes, I have watched as one son tried to completely remove a door. He had earlier watched his father work on the door so that it would remain open, but thankfully he didn’t have the strength to then remove the door himself.
But, something that my husband is plain naughty about is buying my children toys that work with gears. I say that as if it is a bad thing and know it’s not. But, that’s my husbands big love and always has been, “How Does This Work?” and he has passed that right on down to our children.
So, I thought now would be a good time to share with you a set of gears that make awesome gifts for children once they are old enough to keep up with small parts and obviously old enough not to put them in their mouth. It’s truly amazing to me that some of the most favored toys for boys is something like Learning Resources - Gears! Gears! Gears! Lights and Action Building Set
