Top toys for Christmas 2011

The Top Toys for Christmas 2011 is an interesting mix of old and new, and, well, a bit of poo… First though, let’s tell you about the must-have toy of the year, Fijit Friends. With 150 phrases and funny fidgety bodies, these cute little robots are genuinely interactive, and can sing, dance, tell jokes, and respond to about 30 different voice commands. There are 4 colours to choose from, each with its own personality, likes and dislikes.

We’re thinking these may well be the Cabbage Patch Dolls of our children’s generation… what do you think? Will you be getting one of these little guys for your kids, or will you be sticking with more old fashioned toys like Lego?

Where can you buy Fijit Friends interactive toy?  

• Asda (£40)
• Toys R Us (£46.99)
• The Hut and Argos (£54.99)
