It’s Christmas time! Time to put up your Christmas tree and start planning for that magical morning of opening Christmas presents, eating french toast casserole and making sure mom gets her cup of coffee.
I’ve created a holiday gift guide for 2018 of some of the top holiday toys for 2018.
Many we have and many of my kids want. There are a few Local Kid Scoop approved. I also broke them down by age as you can find at the bottom of this post. I’m sure some of these will be Black Friday deals so pin this for later.
Please note: There are affiliate links in this post and we use them on our site. This in no way affects our editorial decision-making. Feel free to make purchases through the links contained in this post. It costs you nothing extra to do so and we greatly appreciate it. Happy holidays!

Best toys for ages 3 and up
Giving toys lots of hugs and cuddles is important at this age. It’s a great time to learn how to take care of a toy or be gentle with a toy. All of the bells and whistles are fun as well but this is when the creativity begins. Here are some of the best toys for ages 3 and up from our hottest holiday toys from Amazon.
PAW Patrol – Ultimate Rescue Fire Truck with Extendable 2 Foot Tall Ladder
The ULTIMATE RESCUE FIRE TRUCK is here to save the day. Your child can extend the two-foot tall ladder, roll out the Mini Fire Cart, open up the lookout cab and move the working claw arm to help save the day on your next Ultimate Rescue!
Fingerlings HUGS
The Fingerlings Hugs is an interactive plush toy that’s sure to have your little one giggling and cuddling this hot toy for the holidays. From burps to toots to laughs, there’s never a dull moment!
Wreck-It Ralph 8″ Bean Plush – Vanellope
With the new movie out, your little will want to celebrate Disney’s Wreck-it Ralph 2: Ralph Breaks the Internet with the collectible Small Bean Plush Vanellope! She comes dressed in her signature green sweatshirt, brown skirt, and patterned leggings. Vanellope is the perfect size for cuddles and play!
Fisher-Price Imaginext Jurassic World
Pulling and pushing the T-Rex around will be lots of fun for your little one. Kids control the Jurassic Rex with the handle on her back!
Best toys for ages 5 and up
Kids want to know how things work. Toys that come alive or hands-on toys are great for this age. Check out some of the best toys for ages 5 and up from the hottest holiday toys from Amazon.
Hatchimals HatchiBabies
Hatch and see what magical plush HatchiBabies will be part of the family. Will it be a boy or a girl? You can feed, burp, tickle & snuggle your HatchiBaby.
Osmo Genius Kit for iPad
Osmo Genius Kit for Fire Tablet (Amazon Exclusive)
This would be great during the holiday break. This hands-on learning tool turns core subjects, like math (numbers) and spelling (words), into fun. It encourages visual thinking (Tangram), problem-solving (Newton), and creative drawing skills (masterpiece). It’s designed to adjust to kids aged 5-12 skill level.
furReal Munchin’ Rex
Doesn’t every kid want a T-Rex for a pet? Here’s the closest to it. You can feed him his treats and your baby dino responds with 35+ sound-and-motion combinations. He hops and begs with excitement for treats – he might chomp on them, or try to spit them out.
Best toys for ages 9 and up
Starlink Battle for Atlas
It’s a fun and challenging open world game, but appropriate for children 7+. 🚀 With the Starter Pack you get everything to build your own spaceship toy that connects to your controller and changes your spaceship in the game. Each Starlink: Battle for Atlas Starter Pack includes a controller mount, which allows you to connect your starship and pilot your controller. Mix and match weapons, pilots, and starships and watch the seamless transition happen in-game. How fun is that?
Harry Potter Hogwarts Great Hall Building Kit
Expecto Patronum! The LEGO Harry Potter Hogwarts Great Hall comes with house banners, movable spiral staircase, potions room, treasure room, and magic items. A perfect holiday gift for your young wizard.
littleBits Avengers Hero Inventor Kit
For the MARVEL lover in your house, this kit includes everything kids need to build and customize an interactive electronic Superhero gauntlet.
My nephew would love the Fur Real Dinosaur! My son has been begging for a Nintendo Switch. He would also love the Wreck It Ralph toys. This is a great list! Thanks for the inspiration!
Oh those toys look like they’d be a blast! Thanks for the share!
Great Christmas toy list! Lots of ideas some very useful for my nephew! I’d love a Nintendo switch!
