Toy

A toy or plaything is an object that is used primarily to provide entertainment. Simple examples include toy blocks, board games, and dolls. Toys are often designed for use by children, although many are designed specifically for adults and pets.

Toys can provide utilitarian benefits, including physical exercise, cultural awareness, or academic education.
Additionally, utilitarian objects, especially those which are no longer needed for their original purpose, can be used as toys.
Examples include children building a fort with empty cereal boxes and tissue paper spools, or a toddler playing with a broken TV remote.
