We’re seeing plenty of Zhu Zhu pets in the top sellers this year. There’s a very interesting laser tag game that keeps appearing in toy merchants’ top selling toy lists this 2009 Christmas and holiday season. Laser tag, for the past decade at least, has been a popular activity for kids’ birthday parties and simply for weekend family fun. Now laser tag can be played at home. The 2009 Lazertag System 2PK by Hasbro is getting good reviews due to its realistic and pleasing sound effects and vibrations, responsiveness, and all-around good features.

Ucreate Music is a new system from Mattel, similar to the UDance, but it involves mixing music like a DJ or music producer. It looks great with a ton of features, including the ability to download new loops and share musical masterpieces. As easy as it is to use, it’s also quite sophisticated with its many options. Kids in the tween years will love this one.

Top toy lists can certainly influence children and their wishes for presents and gifts this Christmas, but sometimes they miss some special toys that will especially delight kids this holiday season. Amazon has a regularly updated list of toys that customers have added to their wish lists, and therefore has access to the toys that are “Most” wished for today, at this moment! The following shows these most coveted toys.

And, of course, toy vendors can certainly provide us with more gift ideas simply by showing us regularly updated lists of toys that are currently topping the sales lists. The following are the current bestselling toys at Amazon’s online toy department store:

Sometimes, kids simply want the latest, newest, freshest toy out there, and the following showcases the hottest new releases in toys.

According to these lists, Bakugan and Zhu Zhu Pets seem to be the most popular or trendy franchises for the holidays in 2009. However, we’re still seeing more educational choices, such as puzzles and games, in these top toys lists.

Each year, Amazon.com releases its Holiday Toy List, showcasing the most desired and recommended toys kids want for the holidays. The toy list is again organized by children’s age groups and by price, and, like last year, they’ve showcased the toys through videos–an improvement, I’d say! See the Amazon’s Holiday Toy List 2009.

Zhu Zhu Pets toys are hot, hot, hot, appearing on most major top toy lists this holiday season. However, they’re also selling out and many sellers have upped the prices. They’re sure to please little fans, but parents need to decide if they’re worth the extra dollars.

Fisher Price Smart Fit

The new Fisher Price Smart Fit is an interesting system that includes an activity pad that plugs into your television, and kids follow on-screen activities that encourage them to run, jump, stomp, and walk. Kids learn about letters, shapes, colors, and numbers; they play games; do warm-up activities; and they take part in exciting races. The faster kids run in place on the mat, the faster their character moves onscreen. Kids can use their hands and their feet to interact with the system. Our recommended age: 3-5.

Fisher Price Elmo’s Tickle Hands allow kids to don a pair of red, furry, interactive Elmo-style gloves. Kids put on the Tickle Hands, press Elmo’s nose (his face is a badge on one of the gloves), and the hands begin to vibrate and move, along with the sounds of Elmo’s trademark giggle. Tap his nose again, and Elmo instructs kids on how to do his fancy new dance called the Tickle Hand Groove. The set comes with a DVD that teaches kids to do this groovy Elmo dance.

Top Toy of the Year – Bakugan Battle Brawlers Battle Pack Series 1 Spheres, Spin Master

First it was the Power Rangers. Then it was Pokémon. Now, the latest television show that has children all over the world enthralled is Bakugan Battle Brawlers.

Bakugan Battle Brawlers is a Japanese anime TV show that airs on the Cartoon Network in the United States. The show revolves around a specialized card game in which the characters play as Bakugan Battle Brawlers.

If you have a Bakugan Battle Brawlers fan in your household, then a great toy idea is Bakubelt™ Action Kit from Spin Master™. The Bakubelt™ Action Kit from Spin Master™ puts your child inside the show and lets them pretend that they are a Battle Brawler, just like on the TV show.
The Bakubelt Action Kit from Spin Master comes with everything your child needs to successfully simulate the action they see on the show.

The kit allows your child to pretend to be a signature Battle Brawler and comes with everything your child needs to recreate the action at home. With the Bakubelt Action Kit from Spin Master, children receive one belt, two special Bakugan balls, two paper cards, two metal cards, and one clip. It’s designed for children on the go with its special pack with the recognizable Bakugan insignia on it that shows others that your child is a serious Bakugan warrior and is ready for battle with their friends.

Hasbro’s U-Dance turns your child’s feet into a game controller with the system’s innovative motion-sensing system. Setting it up is easy: simply plug the console into the TV, then attach the paddles to your feet..and dance! The U-Dance’s motion-sensing technology means kids are not confined to a dance mat or board–they can dance anywhere close to the TV.

Select from twelve current dance songs, all hits, and follow the steps that appear onscreen. Virtual footprints appear on the TV that match kids’ movements.

We love that the U-Dance is not overpriced like many high-tech toys. It’s relatively inexpensive.

Kids will most certainly receive a good workout with Hasbro’s U-Dance. The game also gives the option to workout on a treadmill, and to visit a virtual lounge area where kids can enjoy stepping games.

The best part? It’s great for all ages, from the young to the young at heart. If your kids (or you!) love to dance, the U-Dance is a great choice for fun that will extend well beyond the holidays. The whole family will learn new dance moves in the comfort of home, and U-Dance certainly keeps kids active and engaged.
