I love the creative LEGO boxes. You know, those medium-sized boxes of nothing but colorful LEGO building bricks; perfect for creative construction of almost anything. No instructions—just pure imagination.<br />
<br />
However, after a bit of research coupled with personal experience, I have discovered that the best LEGO sets, a.k.a. the most popular sets, have themes. Pirates, Star Wars, chaotic LEGO cities…you name it and it has probably been a LEGO set.<br />
<br />
With this in mind, I set off on a research journey to gather 3 of what has been deemed the best of the best themed <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-lego-sets" target="_blank">LEGO sets for boys</a>. There were heaps of different answers and reviews, both positive and not-so-positive, but I came to a general consensus of 3 awesome, well-received LEGO sets that little boys love the most.<br />
<br />
And those awesome LEGO sets are:<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NW2Q6ZG/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LEGO Minecraft The Cave (21113)</a></b><br />
<br />
Epic, no doubt. Minecraft is one of those games that started out online, and no one really thought it would go anywhere. However, after only a few months, it BOOMED into something bigger, better, and more popular than anyone expected.<br />
<br />
Then LEGO jumped on the wagon…and the rest, as they say, is history.<br />
<br />
The Cave is one of the most popular areas in Minecraft. It is dark, dank, and covered in crystals. Plus there are a few zombies lurking around the corners.<br />
<br />
This one is buildable, with all of the elements that make this Minecraft cave awesome. Steve is included, of course.<br />

<br />
Peter Pan stopped in for a visit on his travels through Neverland.<br />
<br />
Ideal for toddlers, this LEGO set features bigger, chunkier, easier-to-grasp bricks.<br />
<br />
Jake and Peter are going to have lots-a great adventures that include a treasure hunt for gold doubloons and storytelling in the Neverland Pirates’ hideout.<br />
<br />
Whoops! It looks like the Tick Tock Croc makes an appearance, too.<br />

<br />
I love the vivid, vibrant red of these building blocks. The entire set is enchanting in the way that kids can construct 3 creatures with the same set of 221 LEGO bricks.<br />
<br />
Each animal is fully articulated and decked out with their signature, natural weaponry, like talons, fire breath, fangs, and stingers.<br />
<br />
The three animals kiddos can recreate include: a scorpion, a dragon, and a snake. Lovin’ the bright green eyes and black accent blocks.<br />

2016's Best-Selling and Top Reviewed Toddler Scooters</h3>

<div>
Independence is the name of the game in the toddler years. Kiddos are on the go, now more than ever, which means “get-around” toys are at the height of popularity. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
With this in mind, I have compiled a small list of 3 of the top toddler boys' and girls' scooters for 2016. These scooters are decked out with the best, latest safety features, and designs that kids can customize to match their unique personality. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
What I love about the following among the <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-scooters-for-toddlers/" target="_blank">best scooters for toddlers</a> is their durability and adjust-ability. I handpicked a trio that would last for a while, well into a toddler’s childhood. Little ladies and gents will go absolutely gaga for these get-around toys that are all their own. </div>
<div>

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00FW0X7DA/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Yvolution Glider 3 in 1 Scooter</a></b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The 3 in 1 is an original, innovative design that literally transforms as your kiddo grows. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
With a few switches, slides, and snaps, the scooter goes from cute ride-on, to first-time scooter, to first-ever balance bike. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Almost every component is adjustable, including the seat, handlebars, and wheels. Balance, coordination, and concentration are encouraged through each phase. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I also love that the seat is detachable and adjustable for the sake of comfort and safety. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Right now, this scooter is available in pink, blue, and green, but the sleek structure is customizable if your youngster has reusable stickers or decals. </div>

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B002S144LA/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Razor Jr. Lil’ Kick Scooter</a></b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Razor is an amazing brand known for their tremendous scooter-making skills. The Lil Kick is one of theirs, but for toddlers. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This means better balance and superior stability to help little ones learn how to “scoot” anywhere they want to go. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Now available in blue or pink, this scooter has a three-wheeled design with a low, stable deck, and a foam-padded T-bar. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The handlebar is adjustable, the deck is slip-resistant, and the “grow with me” design ensures a couple good years of customizable scooting fun. </div>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This scooter is beautiful in light blue, but it also comes in pink and green (as of now). </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Dubbed the Learn to Turn, there are two centered front wheel and a single back wheel for optimum stability. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The smooth, precise positioning of each wheel encourages better balance for controlled steering around challenging corners. The handlebars feature gripping foam and a quick release for convenient fold-away storage and tote-anywhere capability. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Call this scooter one of my favorites because the lean-to-steer elements prevent more injuries. </div>

I believe that the toddler years are some of the best for creativity because kids are curious, with an innocence that comes with easy smiles and bright eyes. We lose that somewhere, so it is important for us, as parents, to encourage little imaginations.<br />
<br />
The following 3 among this year's top <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-sand-and-water-tables/" target="_blank">sand and water tables for toddlers</a> are designed to jog kiddos’ imaginations, leading to a more fulfilling, creative childhood overall. In short, these are the coolest of the cool sand and water tables.<br />
<br />
When I was a youngin’ (yep, my southern roots showing through with the slang), I would mix sand from my sandbox with water from our duck pond. True, it wasn’t the most sanitary mash-up, and I got in trouble A LOT for doing it. Sand and water tables would have saved me a few timeouts and “muddy” dresses. Ha ha.<br />
<br />
Without further ado:<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00RZTJJLA/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Step2 Cascading Cove Sand and Water Table</a></b><br />
<br />
Cascading Cove. Sounds like a paradise to me. This sand and water table is decked out in gorgeous, vivid green and blue, with an umbrella for summertime fun.<br />
<br />
Several kiddos can play at once.<br />
<br />
There are two sides to the table—one for 3 gallons of water and one for 10 gallons sand, but you can converge and mold both together for sandcastles in the middle.<br />
<br />
The table lid also doubles as a racing maze for your youngster’s own supply of miniature cars.<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00QGSMSPK/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Little Tikes Treasure Hunt Sand and Water Table</a></b><br />
<br />
I love the idea of a treasure hunt in your own backyard.<br />
<br />
This sand and water table is a bit unique because the table itself is set-up for sand, while the lid flips to double as a basin for water.<br />
<br />
Kiddos can mix the two, or float boats and splish-splash in the water while they bury sandy treasures.<br />
<br />
The bright colors are vivid and out-of-this-world bold. Includes a sand shovel and bucket.<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0193MPJO2/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Step2 Big Bubble Splash Water Table</a></b><br />
<br />
I am diggin’ this sand and water table because it has an extra bubble-blower feature. Powered with 4 AAA batteries, this is a two-person station where imaginations flourish BIG TIME.<br />
<br />
If kiddos want to forgo the water, or ixnay the sand, they can. Or, they can do the traditional sand and water meet-up in the middle, with the bubbler switched to ON for party-style fun.<br />
<br />
There are also flat basins for bubble-making liquid, and a few bubble wands for manual bubble-blowing excitement.<br />

When it comes down to the "best of" remote control cars for kids, cool features are going to win out because there are so many RC cars on the market. The ones with the coolest features are usually the most popular choices for RC-loving kiddos, and most of them are themed, making these RC cars even cooler.<br />
<br />
With a few must-have features in mind, like all-terrain wheels and a tough, sturdy design, I scoured the inter-webs and retail stores to find the absolute best of the <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-rc-cars/" target="_blank">best kids’ RC cars</a>. From a huge list, I handpicked three that have the best reviews and the biggest youngster following. The pros and cons were weighed extensively, and these RC cars came out on top.<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B014SB6LV8/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Air Hogs Batmobile R/C Vehicle</a></b><br />
<br />
Cloaked in black, this Batmobile is an RC replica of the Batmobile original from the awesome Batman movies and television shows. The caped crusader would totally approve.<br />
<br />
This particular one is built with the features from the new movie, Batman vs. Superman—a film that received mixed reviews, but everybody loved the Batmobile.<br />
<br />
There are brushed metal details along the back and sides for a bulletproof, sleek look, and the front features 4 LEDS and a sharp-shooting turret.<br />
<br />
The controller is emblazoned with the signature Batman logo.<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00Y53XH9O/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Maisto R/C Rock Crawler</a></b><br />
<br />
The Rock Crawler is a personal favorite of mine because it looks like a big, mean monster truck.<br />
<br />
The rough-and-tumble wheels are big on traction, giving kids an edge over less-than-pleasant terrain and inclement weather.<br />
<br />
There are two motors within this RC must-have, one in low gear, for quick shifts to amp up the speed.<br />
<br />
The truck frame sits on big wheels, but the structure is solid and balanced, which keeps it from toppling over.<br />
<br />
Good news for hardcore RC drivers.<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KR2Q3HU/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Kid Galaxy Mega Morphibians RC Turtle</a></b><br />
<br />
Dear 90s kids, do you remember Animorphs? Those cool kids who could transform into animals? The Mega Morphibians RC car is kind-of the same concept, only with a more vehicle and animal combination.<br />
<br />
This one resembles a turtle…a ferocious one that would be best left in the pond. Ha!<br />
<br />
Decked out in blue with slit, yellow eyes and a mottled yellow shell, this RC favorite features rugged tires that function on both land and in water.<br />
<br />
The controller is simple with a strong signal that leads this fierce tortoise through muck, mud, and rocky terrains.<br />

LEGO is all about creativity. You take a bunch of colorful building blocks and construct something from nothing. This is an especially amazing feat when youngsters are the ones doing the creating.<br />
<br />
For this reason, I handpicked the most creative <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-lego-sets-for-6-year-old-kids/" target="_blank">LEGO sets for kids age 6</a> and up. There are three creative sets in the upcoming list, and each one is themed to appeal to things that kids love to do or watch, like superheroes, cupcake shops, and boxes of bricks for free imaginative reign.<br />
<br />
If these LEGO sets don’t strike your fancy, they are likely to inspire you to find the perfect theme for your kiddo. From the LEGO City collections, to basic brick boxes that require nothing but time and imagination, there are thousands of sets that your 6 year old would love.<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005VPRF2K/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LEGO Super Heroes Superman Vs. Power Armor Lex (6862)</a></b><br />
<br />
In early 2016, the new movie Superman vs. Batman was met with mixed reviews. However, kids loves the dynamics of superheroes battling it out.<br />
<br />
This LEGO set pits enemies Superman and Lex Luthor against one another. Wonder Woman is there to help Superman take down Lex, but Luthor is decked out in an armored, robotic Power Suit. Scary! The armor is constructed from kryptonite—Superman’s only weakness.<br />
<br />
There are well over 100 bricks here, and each one goes into building a moveable structure with signature Superman and Wonder Woman weaponry from the DC Comics series. <br />

<br />
Sure, there are bunches of themed LEGO sets, but this one has a simple, basic approach.<br />
<br />
There are over 450 building bricks in this box, in a variety of vivid colors. Other components include wheel rims, window frames, green (grass-colored) baseplates, and googley eyes.<br />
<br />
These boxes are the best, and my favorites, because kids have to use their imaginations and inner creativity to come up with amazing things to build.<br />

I looove cupcakes, especially chocolate ones. Or, ones with rainbow sprinkles. …or, ones with strawberry filling. Or, really, any cupcake is an awesome cupcake, usually.<br />
<br />
Kids who feel the same as I do about these delicious treats will love imagining and “making” their own cupcake concoctions. Then selling those miniature cupcakes in a cupcake shop, with Stephanie and Naomi as bakery assistants.<br />
<br />
There are over 400 bricks, all used to build a custom cupcake café with lots-a interior and exterior décor.<br />

<h3>
Spring/Summer 2016 - Outdoor Playhouses for Kids</h3>
<br />
When I was a little girlie, Internet, tablets, and tech-savviness had not been invented yet. Therefore, we relied on outdoor activities, like jungle gyms and playgrounds, for our summertime fun. Which means, we wanted funky, feature-rich outdoor playhouses for kids—ones that we could spend all day playing with, and never get bored.<br />
<br />
The coolest kid was automatically the one in the neighborhood with the coolest playhouse. And the coolest playhouse was the one with heaps of awesome features to inspire our imaginations.<br />
<br />
For your viewing, reminiscing, and shopping pleasure, I have handpicked three funky <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-outdoor-playhouses/" target="_blank">outdoor playhouses for kids</a>. In this context, funky is a good thing.<br />
<br />
These playhouses are packed with inspiration to get your kiddo’s imagination running.<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B007CMEV72/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">KidKraft Outdoor Playhouse</a></b><br />
<br />
I dig this funky playhouse because it reminds me of a log cabin. The craftsmanship is WOW, constructed with weather-resistant wood in a light contrast to the bright red roof and trim, and lush, nut-brown door, shutters, and letterbox.<br />
<br />
Great for a couple of kiddos at once, the playhouse is lovely.<br />
<br />
The structure and appearance give little ones more to incorporate into their imaginative playtimes—at least that is what I take from this playhouse.<br />
<br />
Also, the construction is sturdy, but lightweight, meaning parents can easily move this little cabin from one grassy backyard destination to another without breaking too much of a sweat.<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001PGP33M/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Step2 Naturally Playful Storybook Cottage</a></b><br />
<br />
I love how this playhouse is named the Storybook Cottage. Like direct from a fairytale about three bears, a little girl with golden curls, and bowls of steamy porridge. Or, maybe another tale about a hungry witch in a gingerbread cottage, luring a young pair of siblings to their doom with the promise of candies and confections.<br />
<br />
When I see this playhouse, my imagination runs absolutely wild, coming up with fun, pretend-play scenarios from my favorite childhood stories.<br />
<br />
Looks-wise, the cottage comes with an interior table, cut into a cute, leafy shape—plus a small kitchenette.<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00QZ2PJXU/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Step2 Neighborhood Fun Center Playhouse</a></b><br />
<br />
The most decked out feature-wise, this outdoor playhouse from Step2 is a fun center that accommodates multiple youngsters at once.<br />
<br />
Snack-loving tykes will love the picnic area, complete with an open-faced serving area. Perfect for playing restaurant.<br />
<br />
This little area has two bar stool seats and a snack tray, complete with a crawl-through portal for eccentric little ones who would rather not use the door.<br />
<br />
Also includes a curvy, bright red slide. <br />

What do you think of when you ask yourself, “what are some great toys for boys age 7?” As a writer with a knack for this kind of stuff, I am flooded with mental images of toy dinosaurs, video games, anything Star Wars related, footballs, Hot Wheels cars, and superhero everything.<br />
<br />
So, with those possible bests in mind, I handpicked three of the most highly rated and popular toys for seven year old lads.<br />
<br />
These toys are spunky and cool, perfect for youngsters with great imaginations. The awesome fact about this small selection is they all fit into multiple categories. Instead of a single toy being for adventure-seekers, that same toy could be for creative, adventurous, courageous kiddos with a passion for storytelling, building, and imagining.<br />
<br />
Without further ado, these three among the <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-toys-for-7-year-old-boys/" target="_blank">best toys for 7 year old boys</a> are the coolest.<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00U7EX53S/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Zoomer Dino Indominus Rex</a></b><br />
<br />
The must-see of 2015, Jurassic World was a smash-hit worldwide. Chris Pratt played a starring role, but true dinosaur lovers came for the Indominus Rex. This big girl was a mutant creation, crossed between other dinosaurs, like the Tyrannosaurus Rex and Velociraptor, and smaller animals, like Cuttle Fish and Chameleons. This made her a fierce, highly intelligent predator that movie-goers either loved or loved to hate.<br />
<br />
This Indominus Rex is much tamer and sweeter. She is interactive with a roar that comes from the Jurassic World movie.<br />
<br />
Remote-controlled and ready for stomping action, she stalks with the confidence of a true dinosaur, not an electronic toy.<br />
<br />

<br />
Tech-savviness is the new forte of modern kiddos.<br />
<br />
Where we frolicked in treehouses, kids today are all about screens, social connection via interwebs, and selfies.<br />
<br />
The new Nintendo 3DS XL boasts a few bigger, better customizations, like fast-tracked 3D effects, smoother controlled movements during gameplay, and enhanced controls. It is also accommodating to all 3DS games.<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B010TFQZA4/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Star Wars Furbacca (Furby)</a></b><br />
<br />
One of the most adorable and coolest Furbies ever combines the hairiness and throaty growls of Chewbacca with the chirpy cuteness of a classic Furby.<br />
<br />
The Furbacca is a blue-eyed cutie with brown hair everywhere, a tweet beak, and wiggling ears. He growls like Chewbacca, but he talks nonsense in a sweet voice like the original Furby.<br />
<br />
Sure, they call him a Furbacca, but I have the urge to nickname him Churby. Ha!<br />
<br />
This is the perfect toy for Star Wars fans and interactive toy appreciators alike.<br />

If your little ladies and gents are like everyone else in the modern world, they are all about zombies right now. Zombies have it all—the creepy, crawly, scary, gross-out elements that make a good horror movie monster.<br />
<br />
These reanimated shamblers are everywhere—kids shows and Halloween movie specials, and lots-a young adult books.<br />
<br />
As a matter of fact, your youngster is probably playing zombies vs. humans right now with their neighborhood friends. Maybe. If the weather is warm and the ghoulish mood is right.<br />
<br />
With big, zombie-loving imaginations in mind, I concocted a short list of three of the <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-nerf-guns/" target="_blank">best NERF guns 2016</a>. From the Zombie Strike collection, these blasters are must-haves for engaging in imaginative backyard battles with the walking dead. Plus, for kids who know their horror movie monsters, these blasters are work well on ghouls, goblins, and ghosts too. Wink!<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00U5UEMSG/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">NERF Zombie Strike Doominator Blaster</a></b><br />
<br />
Holy firepower, Rick Grimes! Thanks to The Walking Dead series, zombies have made a ferocious comeback.<br />
<br />
The Doominator ensures those shamblers stay down the second time around.<br />
<br />
Kiddos can use their imaginations to chase down ghoulish flesh-eaters, making their mark with 24 foam darts, launched in rapid succession from 4 flip-over barrels.<br />
<br />
On a side note, I am lovin’ the details of this blaster. And the name is super cool, combining doom and dominate to make a new word that describes the NERF’s awesome action.<br />

<br />
If zombie movies have taught us anything, it is that those undead fiends are relentless.<br />
<br />
Dreadshot is a super soaker blaster, which means it pumps 24 ounces of chilly water from double barrels at creeping ghouls.<br />
<br />
It only takes a single pump, and the water reserve is easy-peasy to refill.<br />
<br />
Even zombies can be taken down with enough H2O firepower! Keep a water hose handy for refills.<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00U5U8P3O/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">NERF Zombie Strike FlipFury Blaster</a></b><br />
<br />
One of my favorites, the FlipFury is detailed to look old and slightly makeshift—like maybe it broke once or twice, then someone fixed it with duct tape and string.<br />
<br />
Thumbs up! Very apocalypse worthy.<br />
<br />
This blaster comes with 12 foam darts, separated into two flip-away barrels with a firepower of over 40 feet. Wowwie! Run zombies, run.<br />
<br />
The trigger packs a wallop of fast action, making it easier to center, whack, and obliterate undead targets. Yep, those pesky monsters never stood a chance.<br />

Many bicycles for girls this year, aka 2016, are diverse. All are new, but some are classics with revamped features to make them A-OK for kiddos of today.<br />
<br />
Finding the perfect one takes time and relies on personal preference. Favorite color fits into the decision as much as safety features.<br />
<br />
Of course, your little girl will have the final say when it comes to her perfect bike, but I have handpicked a few of the new and <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-bikes-for-girls/" target="_blank">best bicycles for girls</a> that you can pick from.<br />
<br />
What I love most about these bikes are that their features are customizable and/or adjustable in some way, accommodating your kiddos to exact specifications.<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NGUVTNI/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Huffy Disney Frozen 12 Inch Bike</a></b><br />
<br />
Admittedly, I know every single Frozen song by heart. Many parents nowadays do—due to the fact that every kiddo in the world seemed to be singing those songs on a regular basis after the movie came out.<br />
<br />
Frozen is still going strong, as evidenced with this themed bike for little girls.<br />
<br />
Decked out in shimmery purple and sparkly blue, this bike comes with removable training wheels, a handlebar bag (complete with Anna and Elsa on the front), and silvery, flowy streamers on the handlebar grips.<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NCUHGSE/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Diamondback Girls Tess 20 Inch Complete Hard Trail Mountain Bike</a></b><br />
<br />
With an all-steel frame and overall strong structure, this mountain bike is a BMX dream for adventurous girlies. Thrill seekers unite.<br />
<br />
The linear pull-up brakes are stop-on-a-dime effective, while the suspension features epic shock absorption for a smooth, flawless ride, no matter her speed.<br />
<br />
There are 7 speed gears, controlled with a pump in the adjustable handlebars.<br />
<br />
This would be a great family time bike, especially if the whole family happens to love camping, hiking, mountain biking, and adrenaline-searching in the great outdoors.<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001K61CSM/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">KaZAM Classic Balance Bike</a></b><br />
<br />
When it comes to balance bikes, the KaZAM was one of the first. An all-original with a few revamped features, this balance bike teaches kids how to strengthen their core muscles to better control their center of gravity when on a classic bike later.<br />
<br />
Balance is key in bike riding, after all, so these balance bikes are imperative in helping little ladies keep their balance, coordination, and concentration.<br />
<br />
There are no pedals, of course, but there is foot rest where pedals would normally be. This allows girlies to push off and roll a bit to practice their balance during movement.<br />

The toddler years are some of the best because kids are curious about the world around them and they are constantly learning new things. Their big imaginations are made all the more creative with the wonders of nature and lots of summertime sunshine fun.<br />
<br />
This year, my short list of toddler toys have a creative theme in common. These toys have a unique focus on interactivity, learning, and building on imaginations and interests.<br />
<br />
Toddlers could possibly find passions that carry them through their entire lives, like sports, creating, and other fun outdoor activities.<br />
<br />
So, for your perusing pleasure, these are this year’s top 3 <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-outdoor-toys-for-toddlers/" target="_blank">best outdoor toys for toddlers</a>—courtesy of me, real reviews, and thorough, firsthand research.<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00IGXUSGY/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Wild Whirlpool Water Table</a></b><br />
<br />
With a cute sea creature theme, this water table wins over toddlers with the promise of messy fun.<br />
<br />
There is a portion for sand and a segment for water, but it can be both or either one exclusively.<br />
<br />
Kids can play with miniature boats, a swirling vortex tower, and fishy floats in splishy-splashy water. Or, they can use scoops to make elaborate sandcastles or sift through the granules in search of missing treasure.<br />
<br />
Ideal for kiddos who love using their imaginations!<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00AU0O7QI/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Little Tikes 3’ Trampoline</a></b><br />
<br />
I love this cute little trampoline!<br />
<br />
For toddlers, this bouncy bit of fun is much safer than regular trampolines, with a scaled-down size that makes it easier for toddlers to jump without fear of falling off or over.<br />
<br />
While marketed for indoor use, it is also a great outdoorsy activity—just make sure you take it inside for storage, or throw a tarp over it to keep it clean, reliable, and strong through inclement weather.<br />
<br />
There is a removable center guardrail that kids can hold onto for stability, balance, and optimum bounce.<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00QGSMK5I/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Little Tikes Cape Cottage Playhouse</a></b><br />
<br />
This playhouse reminds me of a vintage schoolhouse or post office. It is an adorable cottage that comes in several different colors and styles to suit the personal preferences of your little tikes.<br />
<br />
It is lightweight for easier, more convenient movement, and it can be played with both indoors and outdoors.<br />
<br />
Comprised from plastic, the exterior is molded to resemble bricks, complete with a shingled roof, swing-out half-doors, a flag pole, shuttered windows, and a letterbox. The interior is super spacious, great for when your kiddos need room to let their imaginations roam.<br />

<h3>
2016's Best Boys' Bikes Short Hot List</h3>
<br />
I handpick the best toys for your perusal every year, and every year, I am faced with the fact that kiddos are ever-changing in their interests and dislikes, especially little boys.<br />
<br />
Young lads that range from toddler age to their teens are notorious for being challenging to buy for, but I have developed a system that covers all types of kids.<br />
<br />
For example, the following three among the <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-bikes-for-boys" target="_blank">best bikes for boys</a> are of course some of what is popular this year, but each one has a unique feature that would be the drawing point for little boys with varying interests—adventurous, extra-safe, and adrenalizing are the three types of bikes represented below.<br />
<br />
You will also find that each of these bikes are decked out with awesome safety features, as well as adjustable almost-everything to grow with your tyke.<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00IZXBZBM/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Strider 12 Sport Balance Bike</a></b><br />
<br />
Remember when I said one of the aforementioned best bikes was extra-safe? The Strider would be it. This bike is specifically designed to help little lads develop their coordination, concentration, balance, and overall bike-riding abilities.<br />
<br />
There are no pedals—simply an adjustable seat, easier-turn handlebars, and two rugged tread wheels. Kids can either stay steady to practice their sit-alone balance. Or, they can push off with their feet to practice balancing while moving. This balance bike is best ridden on smooth surfaces—no downhills, of course. There are lots of colors available, too.<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00BD45SGS/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Kent Super 20 Inch Boys Bike</a></b><br />
<br />
To continue taking from the descriptions above, the Kent Super bike is adrenalizing, which means it will give your kiddos a kick of adrenaline with a BMX frame, quick-release brakes, and a smooth-ride, twist-grip handlebar. In other words, this bike was built for stunts, and your energetic tyke will love every minute of it. The 7-speed gear shift is smooth and effortless, shifting to faster speeds in seconds. Be sure to equip youngsters with the usual helmet and pads for maximum safety.<br />

<br />
Lastly, we have the Gravel Blaster for adventurous little boys. I love the green and black combo, especially in neon—reminds me of slime and cool monster movies. Anyways, this bike is a grow-with-me ride-on with an adjustable seat, removable training wheels, and coaster brakes. The wheels are prepped for small stunts when kiddos are ready to shed their trainers. Plus, the high-gloss finish ties the look together.<br />

From beginners to advanced riders, from classics to sportsters, there is a wide range of kids' bicycles.<br />
<br />
However, thanks to heaps of great research, good reviews, and personal experience, I hand-picked 3 of (what I would consider) the best of the <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-kids-bikes" target="_blank">best bikes for kids</a>.<br />
<br />
These bikes are available in cool colors, with tons of awesome features for kids who love nothing more than hopping atop a bike on a summer afternoon.<br />
<br />
I would have loved to have had one of the following bikes when I was a kid. Alas, these bikes are modern and equipped with top-notch everything—plus, all three come with training wheels, adjustable seats, and easier-grip handlebars.<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00CIGOGN6/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Huffy Boys Rock It Bike</a></b><br />
<br />
For little adventure seekers, this rockin’, Rock It bike is great for curb-riding, adrenaline-charging, quick-pedaling riders. The all-steel frame is built to be more durable and stronger than the average bicycle, making it neat-o, top-notch for performance and stunt rides.<br />
<br />
The quick-release padded seat adjusts subtly to match the natural contours of a kiddo’s rear, which might sound strange, but it is actually super comfortable and convenient because, let’s face it, most bike seats are unpleasant.<br />
<br />
Of course there are training wheels, a safety kickstand, and padding between the handlebars.<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NCUH8OG/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Diamondback Clarity Girls’ Bike</a></b><br />
<br />
This bike is one to grow with.<br />
<br />
For beginners, there are training wheels and a simple-to-handle steer and pedal mechanism for smooth rides and easier navigation. However, when beginners feel they have mastered the art of bike riding, they can opt for the advanced rider features. This includes taking off the training wheels, getting familiar with the race-prepped handlebars, and learning how to shift the bike in 7 speeds.<br />
<br />
The linear pull-up brakes are stop-on-a-dime awesome, and the entire bike is lightweight and sleek for convenient toting and storage.<br />

<br />
Great for outdoorsy youngsters.<br />
<br />
This bike has a BMX theme that makes it a smash hit with little tricksters-to-be. It is sporty, but classic with a BMX performance twist.<br />
<br />
Most of the features are adjustable to grow with kids as they get bigger and better as bike riders. There are three height options, as well as detachable training wheels, pump-powered brakes on the handlebars, and a water bottle beneath the seat.<br />
<br />
The tread on the wheels is a-okay for all-terrain riding, and while there are five colors available, I am partial to cool orange and black.<br />
<br />

<h3>
2016's Top Picks in Wooden Playhouses</h3>
<br />
Looking back now, my childhood was packed full of imagination and afternoons of pretend-play. The internet was not a household device yet, and all my sister and I had were each other, our cousins, and a few neighborhood friends.<br />
<br />
Life without technology might sound horrific to today’s kids, but it was actually awesome.<br />
<br />
Of course, I had a little playhouse, but mine was cottage-style and constructed from hard plastic. These days, imaginative little girls and boys have the option of wooden playhouses with more feature and tons of room for them and their friends.<br />
<br />
So, without further ado, the following list of three are the <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-wooden-playhouses/" target="_blank">best wooden playhouses</a> for backyard fun, especially in the summertime.<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0177X6FEM/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Big Backyard Summit Bancroft Playhouse</a></b><br />
<br />
The natural cedar of this wooden playhouse means it smells absolutely fresh and amazing on the interior. The color is stained to resemble redwood, and the cedar slats and shingled roof are weather-treated for long-lasting fun for lots of summers to come.<br />
<br />
The interior of the playhouse has awesome features that make it look like a small café.<br />
<br />
For instance, a little coffee table and chalkboard are nestled in the corner and on the wall. The exterior comes with flower boxes, real-working shutters, and a real-working doorway.<br />
<br />
The dark green and white trim make beautiful accents!<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B007KFHFZG/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Axi Wooden Emma Playhouse</a></b><br />
<br />
Funky and cute, this little wooden playhouse has quirky trim around the doors, railings, windows, making the house look slightly tilted like a funhouse.<br />
<br />
There is a single reclined ladder on one side for easier up-and-down, and there is a curvy, short slide on the other side for fun slip-offs.<br />
<br />
This is what I envision a fairytale playhouse to look like.<br />
<br />
So cute! =)<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004UN2IPS/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Outdoor Living Today Cozy Cabin Cedar Playhouse</a></b><br />
<br />
I am head over heels in love with the Cozy Cabin playhouse. It looks like it should be in an episode of Little House on the Prairie. Or, perhaps the backdrop for a vintage horror movie. Not for the kiddos, of course, but a full-sized replica would be awesome in the latest paranormal flick. Wink!<br />
<br />
Seriously though, this playhouse is decked out in gorgeous cedar slats with a front porch, shingled roof, and four flower boxes beneath real-working windows. Sort-of rustic, but luxurious for an outdoorsy kid-at-heart like me. Like-minded youngsters would probably love to watch the rain from the covered porch.<br />

<h3>
Top 3 Picks - Bikes for Toddlers This Year</h3>
Bicycles and childhood are as expected and appreciated as peanut butter and grape jellies. We have all seen the feel-good television scenarios where parents are holding the back of their kiddo’s bike, letting go when the youngster finds their stride and pedals off down the neighborhood.<br />
<br />
Truth be told, if those movies are comedies, the kids might wind up in a bush or two before getting the hang of it—but I digress.<br />
<br />
The <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-bikes-for-toddlers/" target="_blank">best toddler bicycles</a> are modern and handcrafted with 2016 in mind. While some are built for balance, others are classic, but both are heaps of childhood learning and fun.<br />
<br />
The following three toddler bikes are top-notch, running the gamut between beginner and adventure-ready.<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B01939QL7O/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">RoyalBaby BMX Freestyle Kids Bike</a></b><br />
<br />
Parents and kids alike love this bike for different reasons. Parents like it because it arrives 95% assembled, and the remainder is simple to assemble.<br />
<br />
Kiddos love this bike because it allows them to be adventurous, leaping from beginner to pint-size BMX superstar.<br />
<br />
There are optional training wheels and the pedals adjust to grow with toddlers, meaning this bike will last a while.<br />
<br />
The brakes are pump-powered, controlled from the handlebars, and there is a water bottle beneath the saddle seat.<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B007SG9FFU/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Radio Flyer Glide & Go Balance Bike</a></b><br />
<br />
Best known for their wagons and classic bikes, Radio Flyer has added balance bikes to their repertoire. The shining red is signature for this brand, and this bike is no exception.<br />
<br />
While there are no pedals, toddlers can use the push-off method with their feet on the ground to get moving. Hence the name Glide and Go.<br />
<br />
The wheels are rugged with perfect traction for optimum safety and grip.<br />
<br />
This little bike comes with a classy, old-fashioned bell on the handlebars.<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B002OEBENW/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">YBIKE Balance Bike</a></b><br />
<br />
Toddlers are in love with this balance bike! It is chunky, safe, and loads of fun—plus, it comes in a couple cool colors, like ocean blue.<br />
<br />
YBike is an award-winning brand, and this balance bike is handcrafted to teach toddlers how to maintain their balance and composure when rolling forward.<br />
<br />
Kids can push off with their feet to get moving a few inches at a time, and the treads are great for neighborhood sidewalks, or even grassy backyards.<br />
<br />
These bikes are low-sitting for stability.<br />
<br />
Toddlers who master this bike might also love <a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00VREWDJ4/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">the Extreme version</a> that mimics a beginner BMX bike—sans pedals.<br />

It is easier to find a dollhouse for an only child than it is to find one big enough to accommodate several youngsters—either siblings or friends—at once.<br />
<br />
Some dollhouses have been dubbed the "best of the best" because they are big enough for multiple kiddos at once.<br />
<br />
These are dollhouses that are long-lasting because, while one youngster produces lots of wear and tear, several youngsters produce twice that, which means sturdier, better dollhouses are in high demand.<br />
<br />
These three picks from a longer list of the <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-dollhouses/" target="_blank">best dollhouses for kids</a> are must-haves for multiples, encouraging kids to learn how to share, communicate, and cooperate—all while having tons of fun playing and designing an awesome place for their dolls.<br />

<br />
The Sparkle Mansion is a shimmering dollhouse decked out in neon pinks, light pinks, and contrasting silvers and blacks.<br />
<br />
The exterior is luxurious and hints at the lavish interior, complete with at least 5 rooms and over 30 pieces of furniture for awesome interior décor.<br />
<br />
Some of the furnishings include kitchen appliances, living room essentials, bedroom must-haves, and patio seating for around the swimming pool.<br />
<br />
Accommodates dolls up to 12-inches in height.<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008GPMF9U/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Calego Modern Doll House</a></b><br />
<br />
This dollhouse is a solid 10 on the WOW scale. It is decked out in beautiful neon colors with a unique interior design that features background décor in each room.<br />
<br />
The design is also high on eco-friendliness, as the sides and roof fold up and over for tote-around anywhere fun and stow-away storage.<br />
<br />
The portability makes this one great for classrooms and sleepovers, as multiple kiddos can play at once, which is why this is a definite number two on this list but a number one in the hearts of thousands of doll-loving youngsters.<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000GYSYSU/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Melissa and Doug Classic Heirloom Victorian Doll House</a></b><br />
<br />
Antiquated and classic in a beautiful way.<br />
<br />
This dollhouse boasts tons of cool stuff, such as a gorgeous interior, a lovely exterior, and a heap of awesome furnishings.<br />
<br />
The furniture is mostly handcrafted and some of the pieces are specialty made, which (of course) means extra décor for some of the rooms can be purchased separately.<br />
<br />
I love the checkered roof and beautiful shingled patterns of this dollhouse. The interior is accommodating to larger dolls (around 12-inches in height), and while this is great for kids, it would also be perfect for doll-loving adults with a passion for vintage toys.<br />

This year more than ever before, the choices in boys' toys are creative and imaginative, encouraging kiddos to use their minds to build, learn, and play.<br />
<br />
One of two of the following three toys might be artsy, indulging a kiddo’s creative side while giving him something to do for hours and hours at a time. Then again—one or two of these toys could be adventurous, inspiring a tyke to search inside himself for a bit of courage to brave the depths of imagined lands.<br />
<br />
These three among the list of "best of" 2015 and <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-toys-for-boys/" target="_blank">2016 toys for boys</a> are what I would consider the best—however, if you are still at a loss for what to snag your kiddo after reading through, then perhaps one of these will give you an idea of what your youngster would love.<br />
<br />

<br />
One of the latest releases from Fisher-Price, you can mark the Ultra T-Rex down as one of the best toys for boys this year.<br />
<br />
This dinosaur is all bones and gnashing teeth with a few mechanisms thrown in for good measure.<br />
<br />
He stands at almost 3-feet tall and features 3 separate power pads for interactive fun.<br />
<br />
Some of his accessories include three miniature figurines—also known as prehistoric warriors—and several missiles and projectiles that launch from his chest and arms.<br />

<br />
This blaster is a customizable must-have for classic NERF fanatics.<br />
<br />
Sure, it fires just fine on its own, but there are awesome customizations that kiddos can use to personalize their rapid-fire experiences.<br />
<br />
For example, the blaster can be outfitted with a red dot sight for accuracy and long-range shooting, as well as an additional clip for more power.<br />
<br />
Plus, there is always a need for more foam darts when dealing with serious backyard battlers.<br />

LEGO releases Minecraft playsets on a pretty regular basis and the Snow Hideout is one of several this year.<br />
<br />
Ranked as the most popular, this set takes place in the snowy world of Minecraft when Steve is trying to erect a hideout before the worst of winter falls on the land.<br />
<br />
Safety from Snow Golems and Creepers is the ultimate goal.<br />
<br />
Using a pickaxe and 327 building bricks, kiddos need to build a new hideout for Steve before the ghouls of Minecraft find him.<br />
<br />
Of course, this set is compatible with other LEGO Minecraft playsets.<br />

The biggest challenge when tracking down the "best of" boys' toys is finding a single toy that meets the criteria of every little gent. Which is impossible, actually. However, based on kid and parent reviews, it IS possible to get a list of toys that are considered the best of the best because of general consensus.<br />
<br />
These three picks are among a longer list of the <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-toys-for-boys/" target="_blank">best toys for boys</a> for the Christmas holiday season of 2015 and into next year.<br />
<br />
If you cannot find what you are looking for when it comes to your unique youngster, perhaps these handpicked playthings will inspire and jog your imagination.<br />

I am a total advocate of everything zombie-related—and even moreso an encourager of all things NERF. Combine these two awesome elements and you have the Zombie Strike collection, which has contributed three of the <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-nerf-guns/" target="_blank">best NERF guns</a> to backyard battles this year.<br />
<br />
Sure, when you are a kid, you are told not to whack your siblings and friends with foam darts…but what kid really listens? Ha!<br />
<br />
These three blasters are some of the best because they encourage imaginative playtime between friends and loved ones.<br />
<br />
The foam darts are super-soft, yet firm enough to launch long-range at intended targets. One suggestion for kids who are at a loss for an imaginative scenario is to assign zombies and zombie hunters…then let the chaos and giggling fun begin.<br />
<br />

Quick—the zombies are coming!<br />
<br />
Prepare yourself to fight against the hordes of undead with the Doominator—a unique zombie-whacking blaster that launches 24 foam darts in rapid succession.<br />
<br />
No reloads until your clip dries up. There are four flipping drums for quick-fire action, each containing six darts apiece, and all attached to a 3-position handle.<br />
<br />
For smoother operation, and even a few customization tips, a handy-dandy instructions manual is included.<br />

<br />
Okay…so I might have a problem when it comes to having too much fun prepping for an impending zombie apocalypse. Or, maybe I have watched too much Walking Dead because I would totally rock this Crossfire Bow like Daryl Dixon. Ha!<br />
<br />
This real-working crossbow must-have is an instant NERF classic that packs a wallop with four zombie-smashing foam darts.<br />
<br />
To operate, backyard battlers pull the string and squeeze the trigger to unleash a barrage of hardcore combat on approaching brain-eaters.<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00JUTWH4O/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">NERF Zombie Strike Hammershot Blaster</a></b><br />
<br />
This is one of the only NERF blasters from the Zombie Strike collection that allows battlers to customize their weapon.<br />
<br />
Inclusive of stencils, this blaster is a ferocious, zombie-blasting machine that launches 5 Zombie Strike foam darts in rapid-fire succession. Or, you can set the Hammershot to single shots, allowing you to control where the darts go.<br />
<br />
Think of it like a last resort weapon for when the undead are closing in.<br />
<br />
The design is so cool. From watching tons of zombie movies and television shows, you probably know that survivors’ weapons are well-worn. This blaster mimics that apocalyptic, put-together appearance with “duct tape” around the handle and a rugged barrel.<br />

Super sleuths and young spies have it so easy these days. I remember being a spy wannabe when I was a kid. My little sister and I would set up scenarios where the people around us were in cahoots, attempting to steal our gold and hidden gemstones. Which, of course, were really candy bars and LEGOs. =)<br />
<br />
We would hide around the house and play some harmless pranks to snag who we dubbed the villain of the day. Oh—the memories.<br />
<br />
Nowadays, there is a rather extensive collection of the <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-spy-toys-for-kids/" target="_blank">best spy gadgets for kids</a>. From that bigger array, I handpicked three spy gadgets that I would consider the best of the best—the ones that would have made my super-sleuthing days ten times easier and more fun.<br />

<br />
Walkie talkies have been around for a very, very long time, but you usually have to shell out some serious moolah to snag a good pair with a strong connection.<br />
<br />
That is no longer the case!<br />
<br />
These talkies are long-range, covering up to 2 miles of open space and allowing super spies to stay in touch with other spies, and are unlike your usual made-for-kiddos walkies because the click-and-hold buttons are high-tech, requiring a bit of operational finesse to learn and master.<br />

<br />
There are some seriously high-tech gadgets on the list of spy gear this year. This night vision scope is a one-size-fits-all with an adjustable headband that works with both kids and adults.<br />
<br />
The goggle is shielded with a low-sitting hood for optimum viewing in the dark, and kids can see up to 50-feet away with a single glance.<br />
<br />
Of course, since it is night vision, all of the views are light green and there shouldn’t be any light on when using the scope.<br />

<br />
The Room Defender is a popular one for preteens. Acting as a personal security system, this programmable gizmo alerts kiddos to trespassers in their private space.<br />
<br />
The door alarms are customizable with personal greetings that allow specific people to enter a room, using special sensors for detection. When privacy is violated, the lights and sirens sound with startlingly loud BEEPS, letting super sleuths know when someone is intruding their personal space.<br />
<br />
This is quite a high-tech gadget and not just for spies. Teens and young adults would probably love the sensors and stealth of this little security system.<br />

Transformers have been around for quite some time, but the last few years have launched these ever-changing robotic aliens into hyper-drive where popularity is concerned. New fans are discovering the awesomeness of the most recent Transformers every day, while collectors have known about the coolness of these knickknacks for years.<br />
<br />
2015 has seen the release of a few new Transformers toys—some great for the purpose of collecting and others perfect for kiddos of almost all ages.<br />
<br />
The following three among the <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-transformers-toys/" target="_blank">best Transformers toys</a> have been handpicked by yours truly to cover the spectrum between youngsters and hardcore action figure collectors. Plus, these three are from the Age of Extinction collection—which happens to be my personal favorite from the Transformers series. =)<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00I0NI9PM/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Transformers Age of Extinction Generations Deluxe Class Bumblebee</a></b><br />
<br />
There have been numerous polls performed to determine who the most popular Transformers character is, and it has always been a draw between Bumblebee and Optimus Prime. At least it was always a draw until Age of Extinction—then Bumblebee reigned supreme.<br />
<br />
This version of Bumblebee is decked out in his after-the-revamp transformation from regular sports car to 2015 Camaro. He transforms in a few clicks, but the quality of this figurine makes him a top-shelf must-have for collectors and kiddos alike.<br />

<br />
Toddlers are Transformers fanatics, too! This one is perfect for the younger crowds, as Optimus Prime changes in a single shift from his robotic form into his truck form. There is an entire collection of One Step Changer Transformers, and Optimus Prime carves a path as their leader.<br />
<br />
What makes this great for younger kids is the chunkier elements that are easier to grasp and transform with minimal effort.<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00I0NI9S4/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Transformers Age of Extinction Generations Deluxe Class Snarl</a></b><br />
<br />
I absolutely loved the dinosaurs in Age of Extinction and Snarl is a definite favorite of mine. He looks super-cool in his dinosaur mode, which is a neon green Stegosaurus with a battle-tough hide and spikes from head to powerful tail. Then, in under 15 shifts, Snarl changes into a combat-ready robot—prepared to defend the Transformers and their human friends with his signature sword and armored, spiky shoulders.<br />
<br />
Of course, there are other Age of Extinction dinosaurs floating around on the retail circuit, but Snarl has ranked as a favorite of kids and collectors alike. Those who snag the set can reenact their own scenes from the epic 2014 movie.<br />

When it comes to the most unique RC helicopters this year, Syma and Air Hogs dominate the competition.<br />
<br />
I have handpicked a select few from an extensive list of remote controlled helicopter must-haves—both for kids and adults. Or, in other words, casual high-flyers and serious collectors.<br />
<br />
The following three among the <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-rc-helicopters/" target="_blank">best RC helicopters</a> for kids and "big kids" meet the criteria for coolness and function. Plus, there are some cool designs, sleek streamlines, and nice colors to choose from—and all of these helicopters are operated with a single remote for optimum control on multiple frequencies.<br />
<br />
So…without further ado...<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00U7EXH72/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Air Hogs Star Wars Remote Control Ultimate Millennium Falcon Quad Copter</a></b><br />
<br />
Sure, the name is a mouthful, but this remote controlled helicopter is probably the coolest on the entire list…but of course I would say that since it draws inspiration from one of the greatest film series of all time. STAR WARS. Yes!<br />
<br />
This Quad Copter captures the awesomeness of the Millennium Falcon to perfection. There are four motors that work together to send the Falcon soaring to new heights—around 200-feet up to be exact.<br />
<br />
True, it isn’t outer space, but you can always use your imagination. Plus, the Falcon uses Star Wars quotes and song snippets for authentic effect.<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MNG37C2/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Syma X5C Explorers 6-Axis Gyro RC Quadcopter with HD Camera</a></b><br />
<br />
There is a line between beginners and experts for high-flying pilots, for sure, even when it comes to remote controlled helicopters. This RC favorite brings a whole new level of tech-savviness to these awesome choppers with an HD camera that is centered on the front.<br />
<br />
While soaring above the skylines, the camera gives the controller the chance to take pictures and videos, then transmit them to a nearby computer for storage.<br />
<br />
This is a great way to look around neighborhoods and check out weather conditions without ever leaving the comforts of your own backyard.<br />

<br />
I love the idea of the Shadow Launcher—it is all about stealth and being mysterious.<br />
<br />
Camouflaged in deep greens and blending yellows, the RC helicopter doubles as an RC car.<br />
<br />
The control switches off between the car and the chopper, as the copter is hidden within the car’s interior. When drivers get to their designated locations, they release a button to deploy the chopper, sending it soaring in covert style over the treetops.<br />
<br />
When your high-flying fun is finished, simply stow away the copter inside the car again.<br />

2015 is a great time to be a youngster! There are an over-abundance of super-awesome toys, such as remote control cars that have come out for kids in the past few years.<br />
<br />
These remote-controlled vehicles are fun for all ages, but some do boast an age-specific design that allows toddlers to get in on the motorized action. There are even RC cars for adults—but I digress.<br />
<br />
This handpicked list of three among the <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-rc-cars/" target="_blank">best RC cars for kids</a> combines the fun of a classic remote-controlled contraption with the skills learned from playing with such a cool toy, such as coordination, fine motor skills, and concentration. One of the following three even teaches sharing since two racers can play at once. <br />
<br />
Without further ado, here they are:<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00Y53XH9O/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Maisto Rock Crawler RC Vehicle</a></b><br />
<br />
The Rock Crawler gives a whole new meaning to the term MONSTER truck.<br />
<br />
This remote-controlled must-have is a ferocious all-terrain vehicle with thick, rugged tires, complete with traction-friendly tread.<br />
<br />
The traditional truck core makes for a fierce appearance that little boys will love, and the front and rear suspensions are awesome for both low gearing and off-roading fun.<br />
<br />
I love how the Rock Crawler is decked out in contrasting neon greens and sleek black.<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00UMPPOWW/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Little Tikes Tire Twister</a></b><br />
<br />
Using a traditional remote control for ultimate steering power, the Tire Twister is situated inside a smooth-rolling tire that spins and spins and spins while the car spins. This makes for a super-cool effect!<br />
<br />
Kiddos can move the car to other surfaces for classic racing. Or, they can leave the car inside the tire for hours of rocking and rolling fun.<br />
<br />
The remote control is simple with chunkier, easier to press buttons—great for toddlers.<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000SQTJJO/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Kid Galaxy Bump ‘n Chuck RC Cars</a></b><br />
<br />
Bumper cars are the best! I remember going to amusement parks with my little sister, where we would chase each other around with bumper cars. Of course, we giggled the whole time!<br />
<br />
For kiddos who have yet to experience the fun and laughter of real-working bumper cars, these remote controlled, scaled-down versions are just as awesome.<br />
<br />
Great for both indoors and outdoors, these bumper cars require strategy and quick reflexes.<br />
<br />
Players are pitted against each other as opponents. To win, one opponent has to chuck the other from their car with a fierce BUMP that knocks the driver out of their seat.<br />

<div>
For me, the best children's train sets are those that make lasting childhood memories. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Some of my fondest memories focused on playing trains with my dad. Or, walking down to the train tracks near our home to watch the real trains go by when the sun was setting. Those were the best times ever! Not only because trains are awesome, but because I got to spend quality bonding time with my dad—therefore, I associate train sets with love and family. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The following three are my own top picks among the <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-train-sets-for-kids/" target="_blank">best train sets for kids</a> because they allow multiple people to play together at once. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
These are the ultimate toys for bonding and spending time together as a family.</div>

<br /></div>
<div>
This set is a combination of classic train station and cool learning toy—perfect for little train lovers. Since this is a VTech Go! Go! gizmo, you can expect smart sensors and intelligent technology that makes learning easier for toddlers. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
There are actually Smart Stops throughout the track where kiddos can learn about counting, colors, and shapes. These pinpoints are interactive, and the track is customizable in ways that allow kids to use their creativity and imagination to enhance and personalize their fun and learning experience. </div>

<div>
KidKraft is AH-MAZING—no doubt. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This train set comes with a play table for easier customization of the tracks, trains, and surrounding environment. The tabletop has heaps of room for playing and is big enough for multiple people to play at once—perfect for family bonding. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The components are constructed from solid wood, giving both the station and table a long-lasting edge to combat the usual wear and tear that comes from lots of play time. </div>

Melissa and Doug have always been favorites of mine and their train set is no exception. </div>

<div>
This beautifully constructed railway is designed to be long-lasting for years of play time, and perhaps even a generational hand-me-down. </div>
<div>

It would be so cool if kids could give this train station to their kids—and so on. </div>

It can be challenging to pinpoint which might be the best LEGO sets to pick for girls because every little lady is different with different hobbies, different interests, and different ways of playing.<br />
<br />
So, based on parent and kid reviews, I have handpicked a few great sets that can be considered SOME of the best. While there are certainly thousands of other LEGO sets out there that could be considered equal in coolness to the following three, these are the ones that were most liked and well-received by parents and little girls alike.<br />
<br />
From adventurous, to pop-star fabulous, and fantastical, these three among the <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-lego-sets-for-girls/" target="_blank">best LEGO sets for girls</a> are ones that I am predicting the young ladies will love.<br />

<br />
Elves are a new concept for LEGO and this one is anticipated to make quite a splash during Christmas 2015.<br />
<br />
I have seen the television series a handful of times on Netflix and it is awesome based on the few episodes that have been released.<br />
<br />
Think of this set as an Elves introduction.<br />
<br />
These adorable creatures are bustling about their Treetop Hideaway, complete with wisteria, vines, and beautiful forest-themed furnishings.<br />
<br />
There are secret passages, hidden doorways, and mystical findings galore.<br />

One of the traits I absolutely adore about kids is their imaginations. Little ladies and gents have a knack for making something amazing out of nothing at all and the Creative Brick Box proves it.<br />
<br />
There are over 450 colorful LEGO bricks, including other building elements, such as wheels, windows, and a mini-figurine here and there.<br />
<br />
For kids who need a jog to their imaginations, the Brick Box comes with an inspirational booklet, showcasing past designs that kiddos can use to get new ideas for their own awesome creations. There are even a few how-to design ideas for building LEGO cars, houses, monsters, and animals.<br />

This one is an instant classic from the LEGO Friends collection. Featuring Mia as the beautiful caretaker of all the LEGO animals—this set is a miniature Vet Clinic, complete with all of the necessities for veterinarian care.<br />
<br />
While there are only a dog and cat with this set, kiddos can use other LEGO animals from different sets to fill up Mia’s clientele list. This is the perfect gift for little animal lovers, vets-to-be, and anyone who simply adores a great LEGO playset.<br />

Just the phrase—best LEGO sets—is enough to send most parents reeling because there are literally hundreds, maybe even thousands of them that could fall into this category.<br />
<br />
Who decides which sets are the "best" anyways? In this case, that would be me, but I merely handpicked three sets that I would consider must-haves for little gents who might have a plethora of interests and hobbies.<br />
<br />
The following, while awesome, can be paired with any other set to create a SUPER-awesome playtime for little boys who simply love building cool stuff. These are just three of the best of the <a href="http://top-10-store.com/top-10-lego-sets/" target="_blank">best LEGO sets for boys</a>, but rest assured, there are dozens more out there that you could get an idea for when it comes to finding LEGO perfection for your youngster.<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00WI0ASSO/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LEGO Scooby-Doo the Mystery Machine (75902)</a></b><br />
<br />
Scooby Doo has been around for decades, so it comes as no surprise that this awesome Dane and his Mystery Inc. gang continue to gather new generations of great fans on a regular basis.<br />
<br />
This new LEGO must-have proves that Scooby Doo and his mysterious adventures are still alive and well.<br />
<br />
There are a few major elements to this set of 301 building bricks, including the Mystery Machine and a spooky tree with a hidden gemstone.<br />
<br />
Of course, Fred, Shaggy, and Scooby are included, as is a creepy Zombie.<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00WHYLDHG/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LEGO City Deep Sea Submarine (60092)</a></b><br />
<br />
I associate LEGO sets with imagination and creativity.<br />
<br />
There is something magical about building something from nothing, then using your imagination to give it life.<br />
<br />
This set is a deep sea diving adventure that starts with 274 building bricks for a moving submarine.<br />
<br />
Other accessories include a treasure chest, whale bones, and heaps of gemstones—plus three mini-figurines.<br />
<br />

<b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NHQFA1I/?tag=ramtop10toys-20" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LEGO Classic Medium Creative Brick Box (10969)</a></b><br />
<br />
Sure, the new LEGO sets are awesome, but there will always be the classics.<br />
<br />
The Brick Box is a creative play on a true classic with over 450 building bricks in a plethora of rainbow colors.<br />
<br />
This box is nothing but the bricks and a few other building elements, such as little windows, doors, wheels, and a miniature figurine or two.<br />
<br />
The great thing about this building set is how helpful and inspiring it is. If a kiddo is lacking an idea of what to create, the inspirational instructions booklet gives them a proverbial leg-up on deciding what to make.<br />
