In 1913,an item called the Erector Set was invented.It was a steel,motorized toy that children could use to build models of anything.Its creator was A.C. Gilbert,a medical doctor. Charles Pajeau created a similar wooden set called Tinker Toys in the year 1914.Tinker Toys were made for younger children. Raggedy Ann dolls first came on the scene after newspaper cartonist Johnny Gruelle reproduced the doll he made for his daughter.That was in 1915. The following year,an architect's son named John Lloyd Wright,invented Lincoln Logs,which were interlocked to make structures. Two years after Mickey Mouse was created,stuffed(填塞)Mickey Mouse dolls were made by Charlotte Clark.This was the start of Disney merchandise.

Finally,in 1940,model airplanes were mass produced.They started out as a way for manufacturers to sell planes to the military,but later caught on as a toy.
