Christine T<p>(tl;dr: You can tell the grandparents to please stop buying Vtech rubbish)</p><p>Long read: </p><p><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2022/nov/24/have-toys-got-too-brainy-how-playthings-became-teaching-aids-young-children" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2</span><span class="invisible">022/nov/24/have-toys-got-too-brainy-how-playthings-became-teaching-aids-young-children</span></a></p><p>After watching kids play with more than 100 different types of toy, the researchers concluded that simple, open-ended, non-realistic toys with multiple parts, like a random assortment of Lego, inspired the highest-quality play. While engaged with such toys, children were “more likely to be creative, engage in problem solving, interact with their peers, and use language,” the researchers wrote. Electronic toys, however, tended to limit kids’ play: “A simple wooden cash register in our study inspired children to engage in lots of conversations related to buying and selling – but a plastic cash register that produced sounds when buttons were pushed mostly inspired children to just push the buttons repeatedly.”</p><p><a href="https://aus.social/tags/parenting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>parenting</span></a> <br><a href="https://aus.social/tags/EarlyLearning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EarlyLearning</span></a></p>
