wooden toys

In view of the promising outlook of China's wooden toys market, many Hong Kong and overseas companies are actively exploring opportunities on the mainland. Over the past few years, wooden toys sales across all price segments have increased sharply in China. In 2003, the total toy sales by retail enterprises with annual sales exceeding Rmb5 million rose by 13.4％ to Rmb2.87 billion. Wooden toys have been around for decades or longer. Today's kids love them just as much as their grandparents did. Thanks largely to the positive attitude of parents towards toys and their readiness to purchase toys for their children, the mainland wooden toys market has become more mature and promising nowadays. In Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Chengdu, parents spend an average Rmb100 a month on toys for each child, accounting for 2.5％ of the total household income.
