Let’s Toy With 'It' ➜

Toys have been sparking imagination for thousands of years — long before batteries, plastic, or screen time were ever a thing. The oldest known toys date back over 4,000 years, when children in ancient Egypt played with carved animals and dolls made from stone, wood, and clay.

In ancient Greece and Rome, kids played with yo-yos, dolls, and even wheeled pull toys. Fast forward to the 18th and 19th centuries, and toys started becoming more widely available thanks to the rise of manufacturing — think wooden trains, marbles, tin soldiers, and the beloved teddy bear, which made its debut in the early 1900s.

By the mid-20th century, toys went mainstream — from Slinky and Lego, to Barbie, Hot Wheels, and yes… even the classic rubber duck. Today, toys aren’t just for kids — they’re collectibles, desk buddies, and nostalgic gifts that bring joy across generations.
