As a parent, here’s what I want from a holiday toy: I want it to cause my kid to squeal with delight. I want them to be able to get started with the toy right away, either building it or playing with it. And I want the toy to occupy them all morning, while I fire up the tea kettle and slowly wake myself up before getting dressed at noon. These 15 toys are all big for 2022, which means they might already be on your child’s Wish List. Yes, they are mass-market and flashy, but that’s the nature of “hot” toys. If you’ve seen them around but had any lingering doubts, let me erase those for you. Any of these makes a great present. And you’re smart to buy these picks ASAP, so you’re not stuck searching for a sold-out toy. Future you will appreciate it! |
