Kids that don't play with toys support group

Anyone else have kids that won't play with toys at home? I have a toddler age 2. We have to be doing something to keep her busy, like a walk, throwing sticks in the stream, park or a class, getting messy with paint or water. She just wont play with actual toys at home with or without me. Obviously all toys in the shops are amazing. We went to a friends yesterday and she wasn't interested in their toys either just observed stuff, did a bit of dancing to music. She's absolutely great, no issues, talks, could sleep better, but I'd just like to sit down and play with some blocks / animals/ cars / train set a few tiles a day. Are toys really not needed?

My DD didn't either but she loved water play, sand play, that corn flower and water stuff etc. Have you tried that? She will build lego sets now but not free play with it.
