Target Says *These* Toys Will Fly off the Shelves This Holiday Season
Target Says *These* Toys Will Fly off the Shelves This Holiday Season
When it comes time to pick out holiday gifts for your kids, what’s going to be your big “hero” item this year? If you’re looking for ideas for a show-stopper, Target just released its list of Bullseye’s Top Toys of 2019, and it’s full of them. Target has identified a few things kids are really going crazy over this year. Of course, glitter and slime still reign supreme. Some kids are really into nurturing toys — toys that you can clean up, care for, and maybe teach a few tricks. Others are looking for action-packed items that make 'em feel like their favorite heroes. And everyone loves surprise toys — the more items to unbox and collect, the better! — and toys that respond interactively to sounds, touch, and movement.
Consult Target’s list below, and try not to get jealous that your kids totally have better toys to play with than you had when you were their age. And, if you're looking for more hot holiday toy lists, we have recommendations from Walmart and Amazon, too (and they're a little easier on the wallet, if you’re looking for presents that aren’t going to be the “big” Christmas item).
