 The best way to tackle this situation is to take membership in a toy library, where you can rent toys and see if the kid like to play with it. Exchange this toy when the child is bored of it. This way the child will have a variety of toys to play with and you hardly invest anything, moreover there is no clutter around the house. We have a toy library in Hyderabad, named Rentoys, offering variety of toys for kids of age 0-6 yrs. the web address is rentoys.in

 parents buy expensive toys to their children, throw lavish birthday parties on the child's 1st or 2nd birthday! is this for the child really? or to flaunt the status of parents? when we were children, most of us would've had 1 or 2 favourite toys, because we had only that 1 or 2. i dont mean to say that parents should not buy many toys, but must be judicial in what (and how many) they buy for the child.

 my daughter plays with both toys and plastics, paper and so on. i have read somewhere that the child expresses their curiosity by touching and hearing sounds. so, while as an adult we get a head-ache, the child is learning the different sounds by banging different things on the floor, table, etc. toys are great but they could also be overwhelming by their color-brightness, too many sounds and so on. let your child play with whatever he or she is comfortable with and they will go to toys when they are ready. this has been my experience so far.

 yes, you are absolutely right.my son also like playing with household items like soap boxes, finished powder tins, pens , even news paper. this sort of items helps the kid to enjoy his time as the way he likes as we dont interfere with don'ts.

 i feel toys r very important for childs brain stimulation. it keeps their brain busy. but they r very inquisitive about life itself so u cant expect them to play with 1 toy for months.i have seen quiet transition in my sons preferences. he is little more than 2. he liked mecano , building train building, then he started making tea as he sees me doing. now he is liking to see pictures from book and tries to read or just babbles as if he is reading. i feel they explore things near them and wanna know as much they can.i perticularly avoid very costly toy as it surely does not impress kid for very long and later u feel it is all waste.
