For my son it was anything Lego, especially Bionicles. For my daughter, Barbies of course. Some things never change.

Legos and Barbies get played with very routinely in our house too.  What I find really funny though is my younger two play with the happy meal figurine toys almost every day too. Another popular one is kitchen sets.

Yes, pretend toys like dolls and legos. Though they were a little slow to warm up to the lego thing. Now they build together.

Oh and trains are big with boys, a doll house, bikes, hula hoops, swings, jump ropes, kaleidascopes, playing cards. 

My post above was posted in the wrong place I wanted it in the classic toys but cannot delete it.

Legos, match box cars, and art supplies get the most use around here.

It used to be Legos but not in the past year or so. Now, it's more technology and his bike. He isn't as much into toys but still likes puzzles.

For us it was Tonka trucks and construction vehicles and Groovy Girl and Barbie dolls.

I really do like toys with the very good quality, bought myself wooden blocks last year, however I have found a website https://woodencaterpillar.com/  last week and comparing the prices -  I saved money. They have a good selection of toys, which is well worth looking at. Hope it helps

My son does not play with toys anymore, he plays games. We gave him a tablet for a birthday and set a couple of good games there https://apkbird.com/en/category/game_adventure/1 for free. My son likes these games and he enjoys playing in his spare time.

Lego blocks, video games and I encourage him to do skateboarding ;)

You ask about children, but I also have a toy, which I still don't let out of my hands. But my children like the Blohey shark, it's very wrinkled because they often hug it. To wash it, you need to take out the inside, and each time it's a whole operation. The problem is that the shark is one, and the children often can't share it. Of course, we cannot buy another shark, because Blohey is one of a kind.
