Best Toys

Many companies will be showing off their top toys of 2013 at American International Toy Fair held in New York. Currently, we are witnessing more and more toy companies push children toward tech toys. More and more children are playing with mobile devices. There is nothing wrong with digital toys. The only problem with them is that they encourage kids to play by themselves instead of others. However, some of the best toys encourage children to use their creativity and play with each other. Children love making things. That's why we love arts and crafts toys. Here are some of the coolest ones on the show floor.

Wearables
It is no secret that children love coloring. They can sit for hours coloring on the ground. That's where Joe Casali came up with his new idea- Wearables. It's like a wearable coloring book. Kids always want to be their favorite animals or vehicles. Now kids can become their favorite pet or vehicle with this new arts and crafts toy from Kid Constructions. First, kids get to color the cardboard cutout. Then parents help kids put the cardboard components together. It wouldn't be fun without the help of parents. After putting the cardboard pieces together, the fun begins. When they are done building it, kids can ride inside the object that they created. Kids have great imaginations.  They become the firefighter, princess, or stunt plane. This unique toy mixes arts and crafts with the fun of role playing. This year we are getting a fire truck, pirate ship, race car, and dragon. Now if we could only put out real fires.

All Duct Out
Now girls can make a fashion statement with duct tape. Kids can use the duct tape to create wearable accessories. The set includes different colored duct tape. Tweens love creating their own fashions and they can get All Duct Out with this fun specialty toy.
