The historical, anthropological and developmental research shows that play has been universal in all cultures, and children's play is supported by toys and play materials produced by adults. It is well known that, when properly used, quality toys provide children with a wealth of opportunities for creativity, social interaction with adults, and effective participation. However, research-based evidence on specific types of play and toys that support learning and development most effectively needs to be multiplied. Children are prepared to learn what they need to learn with passion and pleasure. This text emphasizes the aspects of toys related to creativity. Relevant to our day, the threats to the place of play and toy in the life of the increasingly lonely child are also discussed.
