I think toys are meaningful. They encourage exploration and fun. That's certainly meaningful and fun is a basic human instinct. What isn't meaningful is that which does not contribute to an increase in human happiness in the long-run, such as the creation of new iterations of phone models that last only a few years just so people have to upgrade.
It's difficult to define meaningful, but I would include that which allows people to enjoy their life in a sustainable world that is compatible with creating opportunities for freely exploring all aspects of human existence, while maintaining respect for other living beings. Much of what we do in the modern world is not that.
