Colonial children typically stopped playing with toys around the age of 12, as they began taking on more adult responsibilities and roles within the household and community. However, this age could vary based on individual circumstances, cultural practices, and the demands of family life. Many children transitioned to work or apprenticeships by this age, leaving little time for play.

Who made playing with toys against the law in sombertown?

I love this movie! I'm glad someone asked! :) That would be the Burgermister (I don't know how to spell it), after he tripped on a toy and broke his leg. He had his servant make toys illegal and had all the toys taken from the children of Sombertown. That is what motivated Chris to sneak into the houses and deliver toys to the children.
