Of course play is a major interest of children. It is what children like to do more than anything else. And there are many play activities. Some of the most important are toys, primarily for play in or around the home. Here we see a boy with a great toy bus. We do not yet have much information on the toys that Belgian children played with. We suspect that they were the same as French, Dutch, and German children played with, but we have very little information at this time. We see a Belgian boy, Prince Baodouin, playing with an electric train during Christmas (figure 1). This is a scene that could have been replicated in any of those countries of course with more humble surroundings.
