The boys don't discover or play with any toys in Lord of the Flies. In chapter one: The Sound of the Shell Ralph finds he conch shell and blows it. The conch is never a 'toy' it is a practical tool and a symbol of civilization & democracy. The only other thing which was found was the body of the dead parachutist on the mountain top, hardly something which could be described as a toy. I suppose at a stretch you might refer to the initial rolling of boulders from the top of castle rock as a game but by the end of the book they were not viewed as toys but as weapons.
