Toys: History and Party Trivia

Posted on May 14, 2010 by Noel

How does one really identify the beginning of toy history? Today, children can pick up a rock and a stick from the yard and turn it into a game of baseball. Instantly those two items become ?toys? so can we believe that children throughout time have also always had ?toys? much like these? It?s a question that archeologists and anthropologists look for evidence of with each ancient dig they complete. We may not have a definitive answer at this point, but we do know a few dates as far as toy history is concerned.

Using Toys and Music in Training Sessions

Posted on April 28, 2010 by Noel

As a trainer it is vital for you to be able to identify which areas of the course will be dry and tedious for the group, so that you can find a creative way to present the information, which will then lead to enhanced learning.

Try creating some fun and laughter. Some trainers dismiss games and activities as time wasters or childish. Yet this is the best way to deliver complex information: far better than having delegates fall asleep through boredom or, worse still, reduced to tears because they feel so overwhelmed by the complexity!

Customer Review: A collection item
We started collecting yo-yo’s for our grandsons and came across this one by chance. We were very surprised and happy when we received it and found it in a collection case. Now we don’t want to see it opened. It’s just like the kind I played with in the 50′s and 60′s

Customer Review: Groomsman Gifts
I chose these as groomsman gifts for each of my guys. My best man suffers from chronic depression and needs a reminder to keep spinning even during the down times. My first groomsman was my little brother who turned 21 the weekend before. The last thing he needed was a flask. My third groomsman was my 15 year old brother. What would he do with a flask..Never mind, I don’t want to know. I think they made great little keepsakes to remember the day by.
Customer Review: Fun in a retro kind of way
This 1950-s style wooden yoyo does not have the bells and whistles of the modern yoyo, but sure does ask its user to be talented. Really like the maplewood – pretty in a collectible kind of way.
