  Q: What makes Bogorodsky Toys so special?
     A: They are hand carved using traditional hand tools. The very first toy was made over 300 years ago in a small village "Bogorodskoye". Made from solid Linden wood they come alive and smile when you swing them in a circular motion.
Q: Who made the very first toy?
     A: There was a poor man in the "Bogorodskoye" village and he had 11 kids. He could not afford to buy them toys but, he did have a knife and plenty of trees outside. For his youngest son he carved a bear that would raise his arms and legs when a string was pulled. From then on other's started making similar toys for their children and sell them on the local flee-market.
