The purpose of toys is to augment the statement "All
the world is a stage" (did Shakespeare say it?). We can be creators of
families, friends, activities, communities, armies, athletes, games, heroes,
villains, winners and losers.
In short, you can live in a world of your own while
learning the art of living.
Toys may even help us to spin some poetry to describe the
activity they lead you to arrange:
You
can be in a group or company of which you are the boss
You
can be a sportsman who never suffers a
loss.
You
can be a person others never look on as odd
In
fact, you can even pretend you are GOD
