Which Toys Don't They Like

[melilley]

I can't really think of any of the toys that I have that they don't play with, but I do have a car rug that I swear is invisible though.

My group only plays with the Lincoln logs when I build a house , then they play with the house for awhile until it breaks and then they want me to fix it.

oh yeah, car mat was another thing. No kid here every "got" the mat or understand how to play with it. Waste of money.

I am going to get a train table down the road and hope the kids will play with it appropriately. I will have two or three one year old boys this summer and we need some more ideas for toys!

Lincoln logs (My groups trends to the young side)

Dollhouse is a big "meh" and now it's not even an option because it got broken. I'm giong to replace it (DD is heartbroken) but probably not aim it at daycare.

Musical instruments--just a big noisy headache, and they never want to use them to play music/sing/etc...just make too much noise.

Lacing beads--I'm going to try these again but last time they were out dcb just took the laces and tried to tie people up....

I agree with doll house and musical instruments. Mine like lacing beads though.

Agree with car mat although I use it just for a rug in a bedroom that they sleep in. It looks cute.

Agree with the car mat--though that is now in my 2.5 yo DS's room and he just LOVES "his road". dcks never cared though.

Waffle blocks and really anything you can build with… they usually just dump and go! And yes, the car mat. I spent so much time searching for a good one and I don't think anyone has ever playing with it!! I have boys that like cars, but they just don't use the mat.

I have 2 1 yo boys. They love playing with cars, duplo's, shape sorter, pretend lap top (it doesn't even turn on...), Mr. Potato Head, play phones, just to name a few.

Lincoln logs, lacing cards, cardboard blocks

My group love big cars, but I can no longer put them out as they WILL NOT play with them properly (sit and one handed) they push them around with their butts in the air at full speed. I had ONE nasty bruised ankle (mine) and that was the last day of those.

I have the same problem, the 3-5 boys love big cars but run around and crash into everything, they get taken away every time. Outside I don't mind, but I don't like my walls and the other children banged up

Lincoln Logs which I was shocked and bummed because I bought them brand new....then again any toy I seem to buy brand new never gets played.....

Same trouble with Lincoln Logs, no one was interested.

Sometimes I think the kids are going to LOVE something I buy and then they're like ya, whatever

My kids won't touch the big trucks- even though I have a street rug, they won't use them. They do however LOVE LOVE LOVE the trains! I scored a huge set of Thomas train set and tracks from a thrift store for $4!! Has all the metal trains and they hook together magnetically, it is definitely a favorite toy.

Ours love the big trucks, a little too much. They are put away for now, they were causing too much turmoil.

I have a rubbermaid tote filled with waffle blocks but the kids won't play with them. I've tried them with different groups of kids in different age ranges and no one has shown any interest.

Ours our hot and cold with those. The group we have right now always want us to put them into cubes, then they stack them. And they are starting to stick them together in long lines.

Weird, the information has a warning. "Not for under 3 due to small parts.??
I don't see any small parts. It is a bummer they don't like them though. I don't have too much trouble with toys they don't love. They were tossing the puzzles around though, so I put them away for a while.

The holder/stick that they go on has a small cap that goes on the top. It really does nothing to hold them on, so we just threw ours out.

I had a nice train table that was used as a climbing device. I sold it.

I'm going to be taking out all my big cars/truck as they refuse to follow the rules.
