Last month, 50 Macaroni Kid publishers around the country hosted Toy Time parties in their communities to showcase some of this season’s hottest toys. It was no surprise that the kids went wild for them. Here are some holiday shopping ideas for the littles in your life.
Do you have a young collector in your house? My son loves collecting and Gift ‘ems dolls and accessories are right up his alley. Gift ‘ems is a collectible mini doll line that features 84 dolls from different cities around the world. These cute dolls come in a box that transforms to show scenes from the doll’s hometown and an image of their flag. Each is marked as common, rare, ultra-rare, special edition or limited edition which makes it so much fun to find and collect. On top of the super fun dolls, Gift ‘ems have their very own accessories that come with exclusive dolls. The Gift ‘ems Tour Bus and Hotel & Spa are perfect for the dolls to enjoy some quality time together.
The XPV RC Skateboarding Mikey from Jakks Toys is a perfect remote control toy for small hands. The remote control is large with minimal controls, which makes it super easy for even a preschooler to use. Mikey does some pretty impressive skateboarding tricks and even self-rights when he’s knocked over. How cool is that? He comes equipped with 20 sound phrases and effects. Kids and adults alike love this guy!
Jakks Toys has some cool Star Wars Big-Figs to please any Star Wars lover. These figures come in two sizes: 18”-20” and 31”. Since they are large, they are perfect for smaller hands and make for a great toy for parents and kids to share together. From Star Wars: Rogue One, the 18”-20” Big-Figs feature seven+ points of articulation and most have soft accessories. The 31” figures include Stormtrooper, K2-SO and Death Trooper. These each have 6-7 points of articulation and are super fun!
Disney’s new Northern Lights Elsa is an interactive doll that any Frozen fan will love. Elsa lost her magic and needs help to bring back the Northern Lights and restore her powers. Can your kids help? Waving their hand over the snowflake and creating the colors, lights and sounds with Elsa is so fun! By holding their hand over the snowflake, they help restore the Northern Lights and sparkle on Elsa’s dress. And if that’s not enough, she sings “Let it Go” and says 40 phrases.
Glo-Fish fluorescent fish are the coolest thing to happen to fishkeeping since water. They are stunning in color, which they get from a fluorescent gene. Glo-Fish has created the perfect tank to showcase their vibrant colors. The tanks feature LED aquarium lights, which highlight the amazing colors of the fish. Glo-Fish make excellent first pets, especially for children and families. Aside from being entertaining and soothing, it teaches responsibility and builds a child’s self-confidence.
We hope this gives you some great ideas for Holiday gifts this year!!
