The net force is the sum of all forces - the vector sum.

If one pulls north, one pulls south, one pulls east, and one pulls west, and

each child pulls with the same force, then the vector sum of the forces on

the toy is zero, and it behaves as if there were no force acting on it at all.

Four children pull on the same toy at the same time yet there is no net force on the toy. How is that possible?

The forces cancel each other out. They exert a force on the ball equal in strength but opposite in direction. The forces are balanced and the toy does not move.
