With all the chinese plastic toys that u see around, watching kids enjoy with handmade wooden toys is very comforting. Don’t u agree??

    @Rohini : Some of the educational wooden toys are available at leading toy stores and supermarkets. The traditional ones might be expensive. Check out these links

    These wooden toys are amazing.
    I remember taking a train to Calcutta from Delhi every year in summer.There were men selling some beautiful wooden toys in Mughalsarai station. We loved them and my mom always bought some for all the cousins.
    Even cottage industry in Delhi stocks these lovely toys.
