Barbie
A popular
toy for children, especially for older girls, is the legendary doll. The first Barbie appeared more than half a century ago, but is still the object of desire of any little fashionista. Why are these dolls so popular? Barbie has exaggerated-ideal proportions, very long legs and a narrow waist. Her face is always beautifully painted, and her hair is thick and long. This is what any girl dreams of becoming when she grows up.
Marketers every year increase the popularity of Barbie due to all kinds of advertising. Today in the store you can find not only a doll, but also its gentleman, horses, a house and pets.

What can I say, even parents rarely refuse to "drive" the control of a small copy of a large vehicle. Going around obstacles, overcoming barriers and scaring the cat - all this is the leisure of children. Moreover, if some parents think that such a gift is useless, nothing like that. An expensive toy will be appreciated by a child; he will not treat it like everyone else. Especially if the radio-controlled machine was the dream of a little boy.
Remote Control Helicopters
One of the most popular toys for children are radio-controlled models of aircraft. Such a helicopter can be launched both in the apartment and on the street. More expensive models are even able to deal with strong gusts of wind. The remote control helicopter replaces the children of such previously popular kites.

With such popular toys for children of 7 years, you can even arrange competitions. For example, see whose plane can fly faster over the playground and dive on a bench. The main thing is to ensure that children do not arrange air battles and that toys do not fly into the balconies of lower floors.
Dollhouse

Due to the fact that the toy can be improved and modernized, it will never get bored. If a girl wants any changes, she can change the kitchen with bathroom. Or she can sew curtains or new pillowcases on her own. And if the child has absolutely nothing to do, then you can offer to paste wallpaper in the house. A unique feature of this toy is that it can be played both alone and in three. Collective employment helps girls learn to get along better with each other, and, most importantly, teach them to share things and work in a team.

Girls from a young age want to help mom cook. But sometimes the best they can do is not to interfere. Therefore, many mothers find such a way out: they buy a toy kitchen. Here the girl will be a full hostess. She can cook on the stove, which will even make a hissing sound if it is on. And also with the help of the oven it will be possible to bake pies. Parents in no case should dismiss the culinary masterpieces that their daughter "treats". You need to try and say thank you.

It includes two laser pistols and two vests. Opponents put on uniforms and start running after each other. When one of the guys is amazed, a light flashes on his vest. So to deceive the opponent with the phrase “did not hit” will be impossible. Some popes enjoy playing such peculiar catch-ups with their sons. But still, school-age boys prefer to play laser tag with friends. It is especially interesting when the team is not two people, but four or 8.
