We’ve made the furReal Munchin’ Rex our second choice in our top 10 Christmas toy list this year because kids just love dinosaurs, and dino toys in particular. The great thing about Munchin’ Rex is that he actually just want to be friends with kids, not eat them!!

He even comes with his own food, and bottle and can wave at kids to get their attention when he’s hungry or when he just wants to play.

He gets all excited at feeding times and sometimes he will happily eat his food, and at other times he will spit it out just like a baby.

Munchin’ Rex is pre programmed with over 35 different sound and motion combinations that keep kids entertained and amused for hours at a time and they particularly seem to enjoy the pre historic jungle sounds he makes.

This is definitely one toy that any kid who loves dinosaurs will want to unwrap this Christmas!

#5. Little Live Scruff-A-Luvs

Little Live Scruff-A-Luvs

To head straight over to Amazon.com and check out the Little Live Scruff-A-Luvs for yourself click here…

The Main Little Live Scruff-A-Luvs Features…

  • Who will you rescue? Will your Blue Scruff-a-Luv be a Puppy, Kitten or Bunny?
  • Wash them, dry them and brush them to reveal who they are.
  • Includes brush, hair clip, collar and tag.
  • Each Scruff-a-Luv comes with an adoption certificate.
  • Color: Blue

Our Reasons For Choosing The Little Live Scruff-A-Luvs…

One of the things we like about this toy is that it teaches kids to care for animals that have been abandoned and have nobody to look out for and take care of them.

Another thing we like is the surprise element that you get with Little Live Scruff-A-Luvs, and that is kids don’t know what animal, cat, rabbit, or dog they  have actually rescued until they’ve bathed, dried and brushed it…

When you open  your Scruff-A-Luv it’s just a matted ball of fur until it has been washed and groomed to reveal it’s identity.

Each Scruff-A-Luv also comes with it’s very own adoption certificate which kids can fill out to make everything official…

And another thing we really like is that Scruff-A-Luvs strongly supports the ASPCA in their fight against cruelty to animals and each Scruff-A-Luv that’s ‘rescued and adopted’ helps them donate to the ASPCA.

#7. Barbie Care Clinic Vehicle

Barbie Care Clinic Vehicle

Click here to check out the Barbie Care Clinic Vehicle over on Amazon.com…

Barbie Care Clinic Vehicle Main Product Features…

  • Respond to calls AND deliver the care with the Barbie care clinic -it’s both an ambulance vehicle and hospital playset in one with more than 20 themed pieces!
  • Roll the ambulance to the rescue and activate the working lights and siren with a button!
  • Lift the lever at the back of the vehicle to instantly transform the ambulance into a 2+-foot care clinic with three distinct areas: a check-in station, waiting room and exam room!
  • Flip down the TV in the waiting room to reveal a gift shop -browse gifts like magazines, a teddy bear, balloon or bouquet of flowers!
  • Slide the lever on the x-ray machine in the exam room to transform it into a vision chart

Our Reasons For Choosing…

We like this particular toy because, like one or two others on this list it goes out of its way to over-deliver in terms of value for money and playability.

Rather than just being an emergency ambulance that can rush patients off to hospital for treatment, the Barbie Care Clinic Vehicle actually opens up into its very own hospital complete with check in station, examination room, x-ray department and a waiting area with a TV!…

And the Care Clinic vehicle also has a range of medical equipment and supplies including a stethoscope, blood pressure cuff, casts, crutches, and more besides!…

Plus there’s also a gift shop where visitors can buy flowers, magazines, etc for patients…

And when the Barbie Care Clinic is ready to respond to another emergency call out there’s also a siren with emergency lights!…

#8. Anki Cozmo Interactive Robot Toy

 Anki Cozmo Interactive Robot Toy

Click here to view the Anki Cozmo Interactive Robot Toy over on Amazon.com where you’ll be able to pick it up at a great price with speedy delivery for in time for Christmas…

Main product features…

  • Cozmo is a real-life robot like you’ve only seen in the movies and he’s ready to be your loyal sidekick
  • Challenge Cozmo to games or use Explorer Mode to see things from his perspective
  • With a beginner-friendly interface, Cozmo is the perfect educational robot for kids and adults to learn to creatively code
  • Easier than you’d think and tougher than he looks, this toy robot is tested for durability and security
  • Cozmo by Anki requirements: a compatible iOS or Android device and the free Cozmo app
  • Includes 1 Cozmo robot, 3 Cubes, and 1 charger (USB power adapter not included)

Our Reasons For Choosing…

We just love this little guy and so it seems do kids and adults alike everywhere!

Once you have him charged up, and tuned up via the free app that comes with him, what you get can seem at times more like a programmable pet than a toy…

In fact if your Cozmo robot was covered in fur you might swear that he is actually alive!!!

He is surprisingly easy to code and among a whole host of other things, you can even get him to dance and sneeze!

But the thing we  really love about Cozmo is that he actually has intelligence and a personality, and the longer you interact with him, the more his personality develops…just like when you build a relationship with another person, or a pet…

He can recognize you by your face, and even greet you. And when he beats you at any of the games you can play with him, he even laughs…

The Anki Cozmo will even give you a nudge when he wants to play, and if you don’t play with him he’ll just go off and do his own thing…remind you of anyone?

This will be a massive hit this Christmas with kids who love robots, coding, and making new friends.

#9. LEGO Harry Potter Hogwarts Express 75955 Building Kit

LEGO Harry Potter Hogwarts Express 75955 Building Kit

Click here to check out the LEGO Harry Potter Hogwarts Express 75955 Building Kit for yourself over on Amazon.com…

The Main Features…

  • Build a LEGO Hogwarts Express train set, with removable side panel and roof, plus railway bridge and Platform 9¾, then begin your own magical journey
  • This Harry Potter set includes Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, Remus Lupin, the Trolley Witch and Harry Potter figures, plus Dementor and Scabbers figures
  • The Hogwarts Express train replica measures over 3” (9cm) high, 18” (46cm) long and 1” (5cm) wide
  • 801 pieces – Harry Potter toy building kit for boys and girls aged between 8 and 14 and for fans and big kids of all ages
  • This LEGO Harry Potter Hogwarts Express 75955 construction toy can be built together with all other original LEGO sets and LEGO bricks for creative play

Our Reasons For Choosing…

We chose this toy because kids just love Harry Potter, and Lego too, and when both are combined as they are here it makes for far more than just double the fun!

First off, kids can build their very own replica of the Hogwarts Express locomotive made famous in the movies, plus one carriage. The finished model measures over 3”  in height, 18” in  length and is 2” (5cm) wide…

They can also build their own Platform 9 ¾, also from the movies with a stairway, a gantry and even a clock and a newspaper stand…

And there are also 10 minifigures which kids can use to recreate their favorite movie scenes, and even create new ones of their very own…

Another feature of this toy we think is really cool is the removable side panel and roof which allow kids to play in even more detail for even more fun…

The only downside to a toy like this is the speed with which they sell so unfortunately there is bound to be some disappointment when stocks run out.

  • Reacts to touch! Light up eyes communicate how they feel!
  • Touch sensors – pet them, hug them, love them. Over 50 cute sounds!
  • Twist and lock tail – a great accessory for your backpack, wrist, hair and more!

Our Reasons For Choosing…

We chose this toy because it’s already massively popular with kids and is looking like it will be a really fast seller in the run up to Christmas.

Kids love petting their Pomsies and seeing their eyes light up and change color according to how they are feeling.

They also make over 50 cute little purring sounds according to where you stroke them, just like a real pet…

And Pomsies also have a wrap around tail that allows them to be attached to just about anything-a leg, a wrist, a kids backpack, making them the ‘go everywhere’ toy that kids won’t want to be without.

We think that this is going to be one of the most played with toys over the Christmas season and far beyond!
