Is big better for kids?
Is big better for kids?: "In 1974, the average size of an American home was 1,695 square feet, according to U.S. Census Bureau statistics.
In 2004, the average was 2,349 square feet.
On the other hand, the number of people living in a house has decreased from an average of 2.97 people per home in 1974, to 2.57 in 2004.
What better way to fill that extra space than with toys for children?
Technology plays a role in the rise of big toys as well.
'Twenty years ago they didn't have power vehicles,' Toys 'R' Us spokeswoman Kelly Cullen said. And 'there's probably more variety in the higher-priced items than there used to be.'"

Why toy guns are not good for children
Toy Guns: "A child learns lots of things through play. Play is the best method that a child uses to learn about the world around us and to develop new skills. Imagine now what will a child learn by playing with toy guns� Do this, think about it for a few seconds
Not a pleasant picture, is it? That's what I though.
Children love to play with toy guns, because they can pretend to be super heroes, fighting the evil. But as a parent, you must not let your child play with them.
Your child may get excited about a toy gun, but think about the children who live in places ravaged by civil war, where they can see guns being used to hurt people.
They certainly are afraid of them, and by no means do they consider them great to play with. Even a simple water toy pistol can make them get scared, because they know what guns can do."
