Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.

Your go-to toy guide is now unlocked.

We all know Amazon is an unmatched retailer for bringing the latest and greatest to your door in two days (thanks, Prime)! From beauty products to home decor and electronics, its catalog of best-sellers is primed (ha!) to perfection.

That said, its exclusive toys & games shop — which includes those “top hit” items designed for all ages and interests — is too good to pass up. Plus, those outdoor games, board games and puzzles will have any kid (and adult) running to that Amazon truck.

It’s time to do more shopping and less asking yourself, which toy do I buy? We did the research for you so you don’t have to, many thanks to Amazon’s fabulous best-selling toys page. After digging through the lengthy list of much-talked-about products, we corralled our 25 favorites for you to add to your cart ASAP.

You already know this toy edit would be incomplete without a mention of Play-Doh. Impressively, this Amazon bundle comes with 10 outstanding colors for, well, outstanding clay creations. For less than $10, any age will want to squish, shape, mix and make anything their heart desires.

As one of our favorite outdoor games Amazon has to offer, the Little Tikes Easy Score Basketball Set comes with three soft-textured balls to make playtime even better than before. Whether it’s set up at your driveway or within your backyard, it’ll surely be a hit (or rather, a score).

Your toddler will love the Playskool Sit ‘N Spin Activity Toy. Not only will it get them whirling and twirling like a pro, but it also helps them practice and improve upon their balance, coordination and motor skills. Plus, it’ll have them occupied for hours on end.

With the perfect kids motorcycle jacket ($25), the Fisher-Price Harley Davidson Tough Trike is that perfect, less-than-$50 grab from Amazon you won’t want to neglect. It’s pedal-powered, comes with gargantuan training wheels and easy-grip handlebars for added safety and even has a secret storage compartment underneath the seat. Oh, and it’s just too cool.

Do you feel nostalgic yet? We’re adults and are still obsessed with the lollipop-lined lanes and rich chocolate-paved roads. For less than $15, it’s a sweet treat that’ll add much value to your board game collection (along with The Game of Life, Operation and Clue).

The LeapFrog Scoop and Learn Ice Cream Cart Deluxe is a game our nieces can’t stop playing with (seriously, it lives in the family room and doesn’t leave!) Including ice cream scoops of different colors, cones and — with the deluxe version — popsicles, it’s a treat and a half for your little one to enjoy.

If you don’t want to splurge on a life-sized trampoline (or simply don’t have the yard space for it), don’t fret. Little Tikes has a wonderful 3′ Trampoline for less than $100 on Amazon. Notably, it features a handle bar for stability and a comfortable foam pad for your little one to jump on.

Nowadays, everyone wants a smartwatch — including kids. Keep them high-tech and up-to-speed with the VTech KidiZoom Smartwatch DX2 (yes, it even has a model number!) For $60, this unique wrist accessory is waterproof, comes in a wealth of colors to choose from and can take videos, pictures and selfies. It’s the second best thing to a smartphone.

If you or your little one loves to draw, this 100-pack of Crayola Colored Pencils will be the biggest treat the Amazon truck will deliver. The vibrant color assortment is everything you’ll ever need, too, and they’re pre-sharpened right out of the box for extra convenience.

Calling all our LEGO and Star Wars fans alike. This premium set, “The Mandalorian:” The Razor Crest, is one of the best splurge-worthy toys you can pick up on Amazon. It includes four LEGO mini-figures: The Mandalorian, Greef Karga, Scout Trooper and the Child, plus an IG-11 LEGO figure and supplemental battle weapons. We recommend it 100%.

Now trending on Amazon among toy-hunting consumers: Paw Patrol! Keep your kid happy and entertained with the brand’s Rubble’s Bulldozer Vehicle, clad with the bright yellow four-wheeler and the puppy that’s the star of the show. For less than $15, there’s a reason it’s a best-seller.

We couldn’t piece together a toy roundup without including Pokémon, the sole brand responsible for collecting-filled playdates. Add this 50-pack of assorted cards to your Amazon for just $6. With a random variety of regular and energy cards across all series, it’ll be a surprise to unwrap (and trade, once it arrives at your door).

Regardless of age, race cars are that ultra-cool toy you’ll want to take with you to your playroom, office (for the adults, we know who you are) and on the go. The Sonic and Sega All Stars Racing Remote-Controlled Car is fairly priced, easy to use and just needs six AA batteries which are not included, but available to add to your cart here.

For lovers of classic games and superheroes alike, this Connect 4 Marvel & Spider-Man Edition will add a touch of adventure to your toy chest. Instead of red and blue chips, your little one will enjoy the themed pieces on a game that’s bound to be a crowd-pleaser.

For the STEM-minded kids and lovers of all things science and experimentation, there’s no better Amazon activity than the National Geographic Earth Science Kit. In it, you’ll find more than 15 different activities including building an erupting volcano, growing a crystal and forming dueling water tornadoes. Plus, its follow-along learning guide will deepen your child’s appreciation for Earth sciences.

OK, let’s set the record straight — we all had Lite Brite as a child, and we nearly screamed once we realized it’s on Amazon. Let your child’s creativity soar with the numerous colorful pegs to make fabulous, lit creations. Not to mention, it comes with dozens of templates to make it better than it was years ago.

Resembling the decades-loved Tamagotchi ($19), the VTech Rock and Mop Music Player is the next best thing for kids aside from the 2000s-era iPod. The kid-friendly device introduces numbers, animals, instruments, time and more — which is just a bonus for this fun carry-with-you accessory.

For the most adorable four-wheeler, the Little Tikes Cozy Coupe Dinosaur is exactly what you need (and exactly what we recommend). It features a parent-push handle, a removable floorboard and even includes cup holders at the rear. Plus, it’s like a real-life car with a moving, clicking ignition and an open-and-close gas cap.

Move over classic Barbie — the Barbie Made to Move Doll is meant to move right into your Amazon cart. With 22 replica joints, the doll can be rendered into numerous yoga and dance poses, which is perfect for the ballerina or Barbie lover you know.

We don’t know a single person who doesn’t love Monopoly (unless someone denies your trade, then that’s another story). Amp the classic game up a notch with the Ultimate Banking Edition Board Game, clad with digital transactions and a more streamlined experience.

Dollhouses are a lovely way to spruce up your playroom, so we adore the Fisher-Price Little People Surprise & Sounds Home. With more than 50 sounds and phrases, it’s a real-life house for sure: opening the oven, pressing on the alarm clock, lifting the toilet seat for flushing sounds and more.

The classic Mr. Potato Head just got an upgrade. The Silly Suitcase Parts is whimsical and will let your little one relinquish their silly side. It includes 35 pieces to mix and match in the best way possible, too, especially when Mrs. Potato Head ($30) is added to the equation.

Everybody wanted a Barbie Dreamhouse, right? Well, for less than $50, you can buy the next best thing: the Barbie Glam Getaway Portable Dollhouse. The set includes the furniture and accessories, along with a carry handle so you can bring it anywhere. For these reasons, it receives our stamp of approval.

Rev up your Hot Wheels with this super cool Color Shifters Sharkport Showdown. The strategy? Have your miniature four-wheeler avoid the chomping shark to speed its way to the end of the track. It’s one of the most unique toys we’ve seen, for sure.

As a family-friendly card game (though we love the after-dark vibe of Cards Against Humanity), Apples to Apples is a great around-the-table crowd-pleaser that’ll have you strategizing like a pro. Not to mention, it never gets old.
