Stuffed Jesus Doll

Who knows how did the custom of giving our kids toys start if the wise men never presented toys to Jesus?

Why do we give our kids toys,games,bikes,dollies and all of that good stuff when the wise men never presented gifts that were toys to Jesus,
Jesus was never given a baby doll,Nintendo Wiis,books, or a Krusty the clown doll, do you think baby Jesus would approve of the custom of exchanging gifts?
what do you think?

It’s a pagan custom that Christians integrated.
