“The panel’s decision to increase the DreamToys top list to 20 toys is in recognition of the fantastic range of products currently available in the market,” commented Paul Reader, chair of the DreamToys selection committee. “Christmas is a magical time of the year, particularly for children, and this list provides gift givers an authoritative and independent view on what we believe will be the most requested toys to help make that all important purchasing decision.”
“From the year’s biggest blockbusters, tech inspired crossovers and toys that promote sensory exploration through to products that create curiosity and anticipation, this year’s list is a representation of what the UK toy industry has to offer. The top 20 will be highly sought after, so if families have a particular product in mind, my advice is to shop early to avoid disappointment. However, if you are simply looking for inspiration, I’d implore everyone to visit their local toy shop and speak to experts who can help suggest the perfect gift for under the tree.”
Melissa Symonds, Executive Director of UK Toys at Circana (the toy data tracking experts), added “With more than £1bn spent on toys each Christmas, the festive season remains the most important time of year of the toy industry. Much of this spend is influenced by gift guides, with 55% of parents saying they use toy lists as guides to buy gifts for their children”
“The UK toy industry continues to be one of the most competitive markets for consumers to buy good quality presents at affordable prices during the Christmas shopping season.”
Last year’s Dream Toys were revealed on November 9th, making this list one day earlier and included toys such as Little Live Pets Mama Surprise Playset, LEGO Star Wars Hoth AT-ST, and Barbie Cutie Reveal Doll the must-have kids toys for 2022.
