I was browsing the virtual shelves of online retailers today in preparation for the Christmas shopping I'm so terribly behind on and, to be honest, it was almost overwhelming. The amount of toys being produced for kids today is massive and with nieces and nephews in a variety of age ranges I'm pretty much covering the gamut. One of the challenges during the holiday season is finding a gift that they will still be playing with long into the new year instead of casting it to the bottom of the toy box within a month. Which is why I love Holiday Gift Guides. They're easy little cheat sheets letting parents, grandparents, aunt and uncles in on the hottest toys this season from tried and true brands kids love, like Hasbro.
Habro "Must Haves" Holiday Gift Guide
Pie Face Game
Have you seen some of the videos of people playing this game? They're absolutely hilarious! Just put some delicious whipped cream from home or the wet sponge on the “hand” of this hilarious game unit and start turning the handles. It could go off at any time, so keep your fingers crossed and hope you’re not the one who gets a splat in the face! You score a point for every time you turn the handle without getting pie-faced, and the one who scores 25 points wins. Take some risks and hope for the best!
Nerf Rebelle
Perfect for undercover missions, the Arrow Revolution Bow blaster unleashes 6 whistling arrows with fast fire without reloading, and blast arrows at targets up to 90 feet (27 meters) away.
Transfomers Robots in Disguise Mini-Con Deployers
Autobot Drift and Jetstorm are the dynamic duo in this toy. Jetstorm is a small but mighty fighter who converts in 1 step from covert mode to warrior mode with a terrifying sword attack. But his Autobot Drift buddy is a Mini-Con Deployer who can launch Jetstorm into battle whether he’s in robot mode or sports car mode!
