Playing with soft-toys dont cut it..

Inu at my friends home which aint frequented by little kids yet asks to play with toys. She brings out all her soft toys. Inu is thrilled and is playing with them for a bit. She then comes back and asks my friend - "Don't u have any hard toys for me to play with" ?

Luckily her hubby found the marbles used as a decoration in a vase and gives it to her .... but wow I could have not called other as "hard toys"...
