Summary
The Vietnam Encyclopedia defines toys as follows: “Toys are objects especially for entertainment and education for children. Most people think that toys are models of things for children to play with ranging from the age of six months to six years. Besides the mandatory academic requirements for lessons to be followed strictly in school, children imitate adults on a voluntary basis through toys and folk games. These are useful and fun lessons, helping children to understand and explain phenomena around them. Learning through play is a stimulating, effective, and easy way to help children become familiar with production activities and behaviors between humans and between humans and nature (Fig.1)
