The origins of toy is unknown however it is more than coincidental that we were invaded by the Danes and they use the term tøi for this 'play-tool'. Since the German word for toy is 'zeug' ruling out Saxon origins and the French for toy is 'Un jouet' and this denies Norman influence then it would point to the Vikings for giving us this word.

A toy is playful because it interests the person and gives you something to do.
