Toys. They reveal a lot about kids. The toys kids like normally meet an inner need that they have.
Example: Girls are nurturing - so they like to play with dolls.
Example: Boys want to feel powerful - so they like to play with toys like "Power Rangers."
Here's a list of the top 50 toys of the last 50 years. As you read over these - think about the inner needs these toys meet.
And then think about ways you can show kids the truths of the Bible that can meet every need they may have.
