This is my 5th ToyFair in New York City and I’m happy to report that we saw some amazing things.
It’s held every year at the Javits Center and no — kids are NOT welcome.
We saw lots of trends and a lot of licensing. Kudos to companies like Great Pretenders who offered adorable (and reversible) costumes. You can be an Anna AND an Elsa!
Have your little budding fashionista document her paper doll clothing line with a branded video camera
Loved Madame Alexander’s Muppet puppet line — Did not know they did licensed puppets and dolls.
There were lots of Dinos (which made my young son happy when he checked out my pictures). This is from Goliath Games.
Loved the Q-BA-Maze 2.0 from Mindware.
We also checked out what was new from Green Toys. They have new bear mini figures available. Fact: The bear’s hand is raised so it’s not a choking hazard. Genius!

So, what toy companies do you want to see more from? Which ones did you like?

Nancy I LOVE it! I was only at Toy Fair on Monday so was running around like a crazy person and did not see these toys. 2015 is definitely going to be a great year for new toys!
