The Craft of Wooden Toy Making
by
Animals and Birds
Animals play a very important role in Indian legends and myths. There are many stories of kings and queens to support the loyalty of their animals. This has made some animals appear a lot in the toy form.
Also, as craftsmen experiment with their craft, they bring in more subjects to deal with. Therefore, many others forms of life, like lizards, fishes etc. have also found their place in this craft.
