Unusual gift

Recently I visited a birthday celebration. The birthday girl was Veronika; she is 4 years old. She is a small, nimble, blue-eyed child with golden hair. She likes playing and laughing. I was wondering why she asked for a chess set as a gift! I think chess is a very unusual present for 4-year old kids, however, when I was a child, my favorite toy was a pair of scissors.
Did you play with unusual toys when you were child?
Thank you for the corrections! They're very helpful.
