The toy business has an enormous boost at Christmas and plenty of major new toy releases take place a few months before this big annual event. Masses of other new toys however, are available throughout the year as films are released, a new TV series is launched or even as the seasons change. New toys are always a source of great excitement for children at all times of the year, and whether it’s for a birthday or some other celebration, customers can always be sure of finding something innovative or original. The Toy of The Year awards are a major event in the calendar, and we always have the latest news about them here.
These pages are regularly updated as new information becomes available and we welcome any comments or requests of how to improve this service.
