Hello friends. I am a proud father of a 3-year old son. I have noticed that nowadays the kind of toys that are being made for young boys are all something to do with violence and action as is being shown in Indian movies. Also, such toys are not of very good quality and the shopkeeper asks for exorbitant prices for toy guns which inspire and instil nothing but violence and rebelliousness in young kids. The situation is pretty good for young girls, what with all cute-looking teddy bears and Barbie dolls flooding the market. However, I wish that my child Anant imbibes good morals and values which my mother and grandmother taught me during my formative years. Those were the times my brothers, sister and I used to sit together and play games like snake and ladder, ludo, carrom, etc. Because we had no other means of electronic entertainment like smartphones, gaming consoles then. But, because kids tend to learn to operate these devices so quickly, they end up straining their eyes in nursery itself.
Hence, I made a conscious decision to go online and search for good quality and age-appropriate toys for my boy. On the website of Cart2india Online, in the Baby and Toys and Games category, I came across some really good games. They are manufactured by Melissa and Doug and have a lot of variety therein. Some of them being a wooden railway roundhouse, car carrier and magnetic car loader, magnetic calendar and responsibility chart, sand pail and shovel, and water squirters. Most importantly, they are not electronic in any way, they are simple but innovative, practical and creative toys through which we learn while we play just like in the old days. One of the best products which I liked is “Melissa and Doug Kids’ Magnetic Calendar and Responsibility Chart”. I had never come across such a product before. I was intrigued so I decided to check it out. After I read about it, I came to know that it is a magnetic calendar with 120+ magnets to track schedules, tasks and behaviours. The product looks very colorful and is simple for kids to understand. The aim of this toy set is to instil responsibility taking, good habits and calendar concepts in children right from age 3. Kids can choose from dozens of magnets to post the days of the week, date, weather and special events,to name some of its uses, (134 included with the calendar and 90 with the responsibility chart) and set goals! Fold-down magnetic dry-erase boards are hinged with fabric and framed in wood. The maximum age though is mentioned as 9 years.
One of the special features about Cart2india Online which sets it apart from other ecommerce sites is its free shipping. Your order is shipped to you within a 10 day window. Also the site offers an opportunity to buyers like me to tag somebody who would be interested in their products and if that person makes a purchase, I earn a commission on every sale.
