Top Toys of 2009
Most Popular Gifts for Kids
It's the time of year again when kids fall asleep with the Sears catalogue under their pillows, hoping they have earned their place on Santa's "Nice" list. For those of us who don't have children of our own, it can be tough to stay on top of what's hot and what's not from season to season. Kids may be the easiest family members to please on Christmas morning, but they also have a very clear idea of what's cool!
Read on for our suggestions or click here to view more from our Toys & Games category. The following lists the season's most requested toys for boys and girls - and you can be sure that they are already the talk of the schoolyard!
Kai-Lan, the character from a popular Nickelodeon kid's show, takes top honours for girls this year, but old favourites like Dora, Hello Kitty, and Mr Potato Head will still rank high with the little ones this year.
Holiday Barbie 2009 is, as usual, a beautiful celebration of the season and the doll that every little girl loves. She comes in both dark and blonde hair versions so make sure you know which your daughter wants to avoid disappointment on Christmas morning!

A kid's brain is a sponge for new information and it's about time that toy companies start tapping into it. Thankfully, the concept of interactive toys and games is becoming more popular with both toy companies and the children they target. These toys tend to provide hours of brain-teasing entertainment and/or physical activity for kids.
