If you’re heading out to the Toys For Tots drive to meet up with the morning show tomorrow, and you’re not sure which toy to buy to donate, check out this list. Once again an Elmo is one of the season’s hottest toys; this time it’s Let’s Rock Elmo. He, uh, well… he “rocks” with drums. Looks cute and noisy. From the folks who brought you Zhu Zhu Pets, it’s Xia Xia. Pronounced Sha Sha, they’re battery-operated hermit crabs. Angry Birds is now a game, it’s on the list. And Hot Wheels has a track you can stick to the wall. Click through for more on what’s flying off the shelves for under the tree.
There’s something called Lite Sprites that I’m sure the 5 year-old me would’ve lost her 5 year-old mind over. They’re little light-up fairy dolls and have their own magical wands and a garden and flowers and stuff. There’s also a robot thingy called My Keepon that’s selling out left and right. It looks like a fat yellow chick, whistles along to music it hears, dances, and even has some kind of motion-detector cameras behind its eyes so it can “see” you or something. Frankly, it sounds a little scary.
Here’s CNBC’s list and slide show. Enjoy, and happy holidays.
