The Big Toy Book The Holiday to Play Parrrrrty!
Wow what an amazing day I had at the beautiful Hearst Building in NYC for The Big Toy Books presents The Holiday To Play. I was one of the 100 lucky bloggers able to attend this exclusive--but more importantly fun--event to introduce the public to the toys your kids will want this holiday season! From 0-adult there is a toy here that you want to play with yourself or definitely want your kids to play with.
One of the toys that we were introduced during the NYTF was the lLets Imagine Elmo from Hasbro. You may remember me screaming from the rooftops that this little guy would be THE Elmo for your kids this Xmas and I was right! Elmo comes with three hats that unlock different imaginary themes and modes. He is small, interactive and above all else Elmo- you can't lose.
Another great item coming out will have kids and adults alike interested in is a new version of the classic game Simon. Simon Swipe is a modern spin on one of my favorite games of all time. The Transformers Age of Extinction is another one on the lineup I am not surprised to see. This Age of Extinction Stomp and Chomp Grimlock converts easily into a Dino with one easy step, making it an obvious toy for under your tree this year. For the Littlest Pet Shop fan in your life the new fully customizable and stackable set will be a perfect fun-filled addiction to your child's life.
Crayola has the toy to beat with the Tweens this year. Parents my age will remember playing with fashion plates that you mixed and matched then rubbed with colored pencils to make your own outfits. Well crayola is combining creating your own outfits with their supplies, while actually watching them walk down your own virtual runway with the Virtual Design Pro Fashion Collection. Even better they have a car version for the guys in your life--getting to see them speed down the racetrack.
While we are walking down Nostalgia Lane, my husband as well as countless others are going to be thrilled to see that Funrise Toys are bringing back Pound Puppies in all their '80s glory. Backtracking into their original type packing these adoptable puppies are ready to go home with you--and to utter amusement they even have the heart embroidery on there tushes.. Yes!
Jakks Pacific has a great selection of toys that are listed for great prices. From their crazy popular singing Elsa Doll to the beautiful Sofia The First, your little princesses will have a lot to scream about when they unwrap that gift! And can we talk about this three foot Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle for a second. It's amazing! Only sixty bucks and this guy is durable, has moving arms and storage in the shell- sold!
