Children like toys. Toys are kid's best friends. Toys bring wide smile on a child's face. Not only toys make little kids happy, but also help them have leisure time, help them grow healthy. They help kids grow mentally and develope their thinking and other motor skills. But shopping for children's toys is exciting as well as horrowful. Some toys made using harmful chemicals harm them. So one must be careful while buying toys and bear two things in mind-age of the child and your budget. Toys are of many types -- radio-controlled electronic/mechanical toys, regular soft plush toys, DIY (do-it-yourself) toys and educational games/toys, dolls, computer games, collectibles and so on. There can never be better sight than a smiling face of your child. Kids like to receive gifts. So better buy those toys which help rather than hurt the child informed Srini Bonthu.
It is estimated that the Indian Toy Market is somewhere around Rs 1500 crore. It is set to grow at 25%. There are about 5,000 different designs available in India and about 50 new designs are introduced every month to meet consumers' taste. India faces big challenges from the unorganised sector which contributes about 70 per cent of the total toys demand.
