Top 10 Toys for Christmas 2010
It's that time of year again! Look inside to find out what toys we have suggested may be the hottest around this Christmas!
We have been keeping a keen eye on what people have been interested in, and what the major retailers have been saying is going to be the ‘Top 10 Toys for Christmas 2010’, but although they may be the top 10 sellers for Christmas, we don’t believe that they are the best toys for your children, and quite possibly not the best quality.
We have decided to throw our 2 cents into the bowl and give you our own Top 10:
1. Paper Jamz
An absolute dead-cert Top 10 toy this Christmas featuring in every list from every toy retailer and critic. Paper Jamz are described as an ‘Instant Rockstar Experience’. We couldn’t have put it better ourselves. View Paper Jamz here.
2. The Rokka and accessories
The Rokka is so new that none of the major retailers know about it yet, but we are pretty sure that will change this time next year. The Rokka is the debut toy from Cornish company Rokka Play and is simply stunning. Transform it from a Cornish fishing boat, to a table, to a theatre, to a kitchen to whatever else you or your child can imagine.
The Rokka and accessory packs are going to be released early November, but can be viewed, and pre-ordered from here. View the Rokka here
3. Pintoy Dolls Rocking Cradle
What can be said about this little gem. A really beautiful, solid, sturdy pink rocking cradle from Pintoy. Perfect for any little girl or boy that loves to play with dolls. This toy has been a firm favourite with our customers for years and this year doesn’t look any different. Role play toys are a very important part of any child’s learning, and this toy is one of the best. View the Dolls Rocking Cradle here.
4. Pintoy Marlborough Dolls House
The Marlborough Doll’s House is another firm favourite that is sought after every Christmas. The whole of the UK ran out of stock of this product last Christmas, and some were seen on auction sites fetching a whole lot more than their retail value. Make sure to order this one early as it’s sure to be flying off the shelves. View the Marlborough Dolls House here
5. Pintoy City Fire Station
Christmas 2009’s top seller for us was the Pintoy Fire Station and accessories, and now this year Pintoy have released a smaller and arguably cooler version of the Fire Series called the City Fire Station, City Fire Engine and City Fire Fighters and Accessories. These are going to be as hot as an mammoth in the Sahara, make sure to get in fast! View the Pintoy City Fire Station.
