Genizah for Child’s Sefer Torah

Question:

Does a printed sefer torah for children to carry on Simchas Torah require genizah? My thought it that since it is not even meant to learn from, rather just to “look like a sefer torah” it would not.
thank you.

Answer:

Yes, it would require genizah. The pesukim and names of Hashem require genizah even though their main intent was not to learn from them.
