Walmart Unveils 2020 Top-Rated by Kids Toy List

Walmart has unveiled its hottest toys for 2020 with its annual Top-Rated by Kids Toy List. The list features over 35 toys rated after played with by kids. The toys are organized into six categories that include high-tech gadgets, interactive play, energy-burning outdoor toys, screen-free outdoor entertainment and more.

Steve Ronchetto, vice president of Toys at Walmart, says in the announcement, "This year’s Top-Rated by Kids Toy List reflects the shift we’ve seen in toy trends and behaviors this year. Toys play a critical role in families’ lives as they spend more time at home and parents seek ways to keep kids engaged with learning-based play. More than any year before, we’re seeing strong interest across toys that stem from digital platforms, like kid influencer-created toys, interactive and educational toys, screen-free indoor entertainment and toys for active outdoor play.
