Top 12 Toys for Christmas 2018 have been announced at Dreamtoys 2018 and there’s something for everyone in this list, from Fortnite to Barbie, and the full list is below.
Gary Grant, chair of the DreamToys committee said: “It is a huge honour each year to unveil the DreamToys top twelve list. We have a fantastic range of toys this year to suit every budget, with three quarters of the list under £50, representing real value for money in these uncertain times. The list is an excellent reflection of the toy industry’s dedication to innovation and ingenuity and highlights the wonder and happiness that toys bring to children and families at this time of year.”
Frederique Tutt, global analyst for The NPD Group’s toy division added: “2018 has been very disruptive for the toy industry globally. However, whilst retail is experiencing a transformation, more than £1.2BN worth of toys will be sold this Christmas. We expect dolls, slime, Harry Potter, collectables and ‘unboxing’ toys to be on children’s lists.”
