Handcrafted wooden toys have special place in handicraft design. Karnataka in south and Varanasi and Mughalsari in North India are the well-known for their creative toy design even today. Applying a coat white primer on wooden surface and painted with colorful combination makes the toys extremely attractive. A glossy waterproof color coat is given for the protection from moisture and dust. The Ganesh (plate 9A) with bright red color would always draw attention. Interesting design of a toy with animated birds pecking (plate 9B) has bright sap-green color bound to attract children. The click-clack toys (plate 9C) would attract children for its dynamic swing of the string hitting the small drum. And the bright colored top design is undoubtedly favourite toy (plate 9D) for most children. Thus, the attractive handcrafted bright color combination of wooden toys would always remain dear to children for fun.
