I attended the 4th Annual Holiday of Play. Hosting this wonderful event was the Toy Insider and Woman's Day Magazine. There were many brands present showcasing the hottest toys for this holiday season.

The first table was the Hot 20 Toys. This included Disney, Skylanders, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Shopkins, Elmo and more. With the Star Wars The Force Awakens set to hit theaters this December the LightSaber have been sold out at some toy stores. Star Wars are definitely the Hot Toy all kids big and small will want.

The next table was the Stem10. This showcased all the engineering and science toys. The Top Tech 12 table had all the tech gadgets. I had fun being a kid again playing with all these toys. I tried out the K'nex Wheel that turns. The Laser Peg plane that light up and you can use with Lego's.

The Crayola Animation Studio is cool as you can color in the background. Next you place the animation guy and have him move anyway you want. Then you can watch your own animation you create come alive on your tablet. Stikbot toys are similar to the Crayola but it has more figures you can play with.

Before I go, I have to show you all the Pie Face game that I participated in at this event. In the Pie Face game you spin the wheel to the number indicated. Next you turn the knob and the winner who does not get pie face is the winner. I have to say, it tasted good. In this demonstration we were all winners. Thanks @theToyInsider @Hasbro for my goody bag for participating.
