Fundamentally Children’s ‘toys to watch in 2020’

Research assistant Anna Taylor takes a look at some of the toys that Fundamentally Children – the organisation which specialises in developmental and educational toys – advises independent retailers to look out for in 2020.

Melissa & Doug Latches Board (2 – 4 years)

“A wooden activity play board that challenges children to navigate latches that hook, snap, click, and slide. Young children love to fiddle with locks, latches and buttons to learn how they work, developing their logical thinking skills.”

Corgi Chunkies (3 – 7 years)

“A new range from Corgi offering a variety of child-friendly vehicle collectables. Toy cars have been a favourite for many, many years and the Corgi brand is obviously a big player
in this space. Their new range of vehicles brings that collectible level quality to a younger audience.”

One Dear World Inclusive Disability Dolls for All (3 – 8 years)

“These soft and cuddly dolls are more than their disabilities. The range includes dolls with different disabilities, including hearing and visual impairments, autism and anxiety. The dolls themselves are a pretty classic toy – but it’s promising to see a forward-thinking range that is promoting positive representation in the toy box.”

Kidesign Densters (3 – 6 years)

“An innovative toy for an activity as old as time – building blanket forts! Each of the six monster ‘pegs’ holds blankets and bedsheets in place by grabbing, hooking and clipping in various ways. Densters make it easy for children to build the perfect spot for a little relaxing, storytelling, or make-believe play.”
