И is for igrushki

This slightly familiar looking letter is actually a vowel that makes the "ee" sound. In handwriting, it resembles the English letter Uu: Ии.

Игрушки (igrushki) are toys! I have nesting dolls called матрёшки (matryoshki), Sasha has a traditional paddle toy with pecking chickens, and Volodya has a wooden doll that wobbles back and forth on a weighted base.
