I don’t want to take it out because I have done something similar to this before and she got depressed over it until I put it back. I have even gotten her favorite banana calcium to coax her out of eating her wooden toy. PLEASE HELP She is going crazy over it staying up all night and sleepoing all day.
She already has a mate and several other friends so she’s definitely not lonely. Plus nothing has changed in her life for about 8 months. She has not even expressed an interest until her toy for several years until now.
Jus in case it helps anyone she is 7 years old and has a Harrisons diet. Plus she is bery healthy according to her doctor.

saracmd asked:
My friend had this toy when she was younger, and I always wanted one….
Its probably hand made from a craft show. Its approximately 5 small flat rectangles of wood laid out in a line with two ribbons weaved in and out between the blocks. When you hold them uo, they stay attached, but if you hold it by the second block down, the top block tumbles down the row of blocks to the bottom, and the second block that yuour holding on to then becomes the top block. Its a very neat toy!
Im wondering has anyone ever heard of seen, or own this toy? Do you know what it is called, or a place (preferably a website) that i can find it? Or does anyon know any history about the toy or helpful hints to help me find it?
Thank you for your time! this means alot to me to find this information!!!

Wooden Toys are Making a Come Back – Learn Why
Posted by admin on
September 19, 2008
Gen Wright asked:
ooden toys invented? Wooden toys are invented because wood is the only easily available materials where one can make toys from with simple tools. Sad to speak, it’s hard to find wooden toys in toy stores these days.
Online toy stores offer a wide variety of wooden toys to choose from. And sometimes, it’s easier to find what you want because modern toy stores these days mostly sell plastic toys.
Unlike plastic toys, an eye for detail is needed to craft great looking wooden toys such as trains, horses, or even lady bugs. These toys are usually quite costly.
However, plastic eventually starts to replace wood when it comes to making toys and its cheaper for mass production. Hence, many toy makers switched to plastic.
In history, the Germans are well known to create high quality wooden toys since the seventeenth century.
These toys have been very popular because they are pollution free, and therefore friendly to the environment.
Young children can also benefit from wooden toys greatly because toys like wooden puzzles help a child’s mind to grow.
But do you know where to source for antique wooden toys? You can find some really great deals online. Deals come from auction sites or online toy retailers. If you are lucky, you may be the proud owner of a vintage wooden toy. But be forewarned, if the deal is too good to be true, it probably is.
In the education field, many wooden toys such as wooden beads, mazes, puzzles and blocks are used. This is because they don’t get damaged easily and can be used many times over. Also, it doesn’t matter if the child is a boy or girl. There will be wooden toys that is ideal for them. For example, boys can choose to play with wooden horses, while girls can choose to play with miniature wooden toys.
Now ask yourself: Why do you think wooden toys have always remained so popular? They have remained as one of the top collector’s choice because they come in so many different forms. The price of a wooden toy depends very much on its age and general condition. The older it is, and the better the overall condition, the more valuable it will be.
The one thing that separates wooden toys from all the other toys is that it seems to last forever. Small little wooden toys are the ideal candidate for gifts. Both adults and children will love them.
Compared to plastic toys, wooden toys are more durable, and can usually last for generations. There is also variety. Wooden toys range from toy trains, puzzle blocks, to rocking horses.
If the wooden toy is made for young children, make sure that the paint on it is non-toxic. In recent years, toys made from wood are making a come back. And for good reasons.
There is nowhere that wooden toys cannot exist – they can be found both indoors and outdoors. Maintenance for wooden toys is very simple. Use a wet cloth to clean the surface, and spray the toy with an inhibitor if you want. Wooden toys such as wooden furniture, doll houses, or kitchen play sets all allow children to development their imagination to the fullest.
Simplicity is never a bad thing. Battery operated toys are not as effective as wooden toys when it comes to encouraging young children to think. Toy collectors like collecting wooden toys more because they are more durable. And although plastic toys cost less than wooden toys, they often break more easily, making them less desirable to keep in a collection.

I’m surprised to read the many positive reviews of this toy on the site. My baby shows little interest in this, as well as the other Sassy wooden toys I purchased for her.
