Evolution of Sound in Toys
Toys have evolved in terms of sound production, from analog methods in the 50s to more advanced electronic chips in recent years. The invention of chip-based toys in the 70s, like Simon and Speaking Spell, revolutionized the industry by allowing for more complex sounds and interactivity. However, advancements in technology have also led to toys becoming louder and potentially harmful to children's hearing. Research shows that many toys exceed the recommended sound limit, with some reaching volumes comparable to a chainsaw or rock concert. Parents are advised to be cautious and protect their children's ears from overly loud toys.
