План к тексту Dolls that sing and dance, cars that move at the touch of a button and aeroplanes that fly are the toys that make children happy today. Now, let's take a journey into the past. What toys were there in a child's playground in the 18th century or the Victorian times? In those times, building bricks with letters of the alphabet on them were very common. Toys of this kind helped children learn while playing. Other toys such as model kitchens, doll's houses, toy stoves and tea sets taught girls how to run a home. Dolls of wood, clay and wax were also very popular with girls and prepared them to become mothers. As for boys, tool kits, trains, cars, trucks and garages gave them an interest in engineering. Both boys and girls, though, loved their rocking horses, and teddy bears. Things for children from poor families were different. They played mostly on the street and they didn't have money to buy new dolls or toy cars. They used mud, tin caps, old clothes and their imagination to make their own toys. No matter how old or new, expensive or cheap toys are, they always have a special place in children's hearts, throughout the ages.
Dear Paul,
Thanks for your letter. How are you doing? In your letter you asked me some questions, so here’s my answer.
We like to play basketball too. Also we really like playing football in summer. But you know, Russia is kinda cold country in winter, so this is the time we play snowballs. I hope that you will visit us one day and we could play with you.
By the way, how is your sister? Was it easy to pass her exams? Does she like her university? What is her favorite subject? Sorry, I have to help my mum right now. Please, drop me a line, I’ll be waiting for it.
With love,
