How often did you play with it
Well, I think toys play a crucial role in the initial development of a child’s mind. They help in the growth of motor skills, social and psychological abilities of a child. I am lucky to have such parents who bought all kinds of toys for me in my childhood. I had almost every sort of toy available in the market such as electric cars, soft toys, puzzles, etcetera. But today I would like to talk about a toy that was really close to me during my childhood. My father used to go to Japan for his business trips twice a year when I was a pre-schooler. I used to eagerly wait for my father to come back so that I would see him unpacking his luggage and receive my gift. Every time he used to bring unique gifts for me and once, he bought a toy which was a rolling puppy. I could not contain my excitement when I opened the wrapped gift. It resembled exactly like a toy Pomeranian which is the cutest dog breed. It was made up of a plastic body and was covered with white coloured fur all over the body. It had brown patches around the eyes which made it adorable. I fell in love with it at the first glance and to make it more attractive, it was a battery-operated toy. It used to make delightful barking sound and jumps on the plain surface. After four to five jumps, it used to roll over two times. I remember that I love to play with it every time and used to carry it along with me to the playground too. I used to treat it like a real dog and this toy helped to grow a love for the pets especially dogs and cats. After growing up, I kept the same dog as the toy as my pet. It was the most precious toy from my childhood and it is still there with me in my room’s showcase.
