I’m sorry, I’m sorry — that title is absolutely inappropriate, I just couldn’t resist!
For the last few years, SpongeBob SquarePants has been everywhere — everywhere! Thus far, I think he’s officially lasted even longer than Barney — and although the giggling, screech voiced little spaz of a sponge definitely has the potential to be wearing [...]
Mattel is all over it for the Christmas season – they are not playing around. Ladies and gentlemen, may I present the Hot Wheels R/C Extreme Moto-Cross Cycle 27MHz. The commercials for this cycle are plastered all over the TV already, and I can only imagine the number of boys – and girls, because this [...]
Hey all you parents out there – if your daughters are anything like I was when I was younger, the highlight of Christmas morning was seeing how many new Barbie goodies would be waiting for me. Back then, the height of Barbie-rama meant getting a big, beautiful house for all my dolls. Barbie’s Dream House [...]
Folks are getting serious about kids’ toys these days. It isn’t just about having fun; it’s about learning too – which, of course, is what every parent wants. Right now, one of the biggest sellers at Toys ‘R Us are the EyeClops Night Vision Goggles. You read that right – night vision goggles for kids [...]
That’s right, everyone’s favorite pint-sized poster girl for fruity-smelling sweetness has gotten a much needed makeover. The idea is, of course, to make her more interesting to today’s little girls. The big premise is this: those of us who grew up in the 1980s played with the scrumptious little Shortcake. So now, as we begin [...]
The Nintendo trend doesn’t seem to be going anywhere this year. The stores are, of course, already gearing up for Christmas, so we here at Best Children Toys are officially beginning a Countdown to Christmas series! One out of every three posts will be dedicated to the toys that look like they’ll be [...]
WALL-E is big. WALL-E is huge. Right now, a lot of the kids flocking to see the Pixar classic-in-the-making may not realize how deep the movie is (c’mon, if you’ve seen it, you have to agree), but they are all over the little guy who looks Number 5 from 1986’s Short Circuit. WALL-E toys are [...]
Ah, the Teletubbies. Mothers the world over know their names by heart and children are enthralled by their infectious giggles and cuter than cute baby talk. Dipsy, Po, Laa-Laa, and Tinky Winky have not faded away like some of the newest children’s icons. In fact, the new Dance with Me Teletubbies are already a sure [...]
Nobody really expected the newest Incredible Hulk movie to do nearly as well as it’s doing, especially after that Ang Lee debacle. Personally, I think Edward Norton is the reason behind its success, but that’s hardly an appropriate topic. Besides, the important point is that it’s also really popular among kids, and it’s also promoting [...]
I really think that this may be a sign of the apocalypse. It’s cute enough to make your teeth rot right out of your head. Barbie and Elmo, and both of them unbelievably adorable. Look at that – she’s even got a little Elmo tee shirt. That is too cute for words. As you can [...]
