This kit comes with enough materials to make 10 charms that kids can dangle from a charm bracelet. They can get their creative juices flowing, layering in mix-ins like gems and stickers, then press two buttons to turn their creation into a charm. Ages 6+

This is the big bonanza for kids who love slime: It includes 50 slime toys, including bases, tools, mix-ins, and surprise reveals. Gui Gui takes its inspiration more from the beauty aisle than the toy aisle, and it even smells like shampoo. “The little figures are cute and fun,” a 9-year-old told the Good Housekeeping Institute. “I will keep playing with these slimes, because they’re better than the ones I can make myself.” Ages 6+

Sounds, sights, and sensory experiences come together to let kids pretend to open their own play kitchen. “[My son] liked that there were so many pasta settings,” one mom told the Good Housekeeping Institute. “He especially liked making the raviolis, and that the rigatoni setting was actually hollow.” In total, there are 25 different foods to create. Ages 3+

This vehicle has three play modes, but when kids came to the Good Housekeeping Institute to test toys in person, “Beast Mode” was the clear favorite. On that mode, it races around and does wheelies all on its own! “One of the best things about it is that it works great both indoors and outdoors,” one parent tester said. “He drove it on grass, the street, the sidewalk, hardwood floors, and even carpet without any problems.” Ages 4+; two AAA batteries required

The next trend in botanical arranging? Play-Doh! Blooms by Play-Doh kits are aimed at older Play-Doh fans and use different rollers and cutouts to make realistic-looking bouquets.

Readers love the Magna-Tiles microMAGS because they’re easy to slip into a purse, backpack, or travel bag—and they even come in a tin that doubles as a base plate.

Slimes, putties, squishies—kids can’t get enough sensory toys this year. This one from Crazy Aaron’s is great because the putty is smooth and silky (like butter), not sticky and gross. It even has a sweet smell. Ages 3+

There are so many ways to train up Pokémon: in video games, in Pokémon Go, and now through LEGO. The secret is the SMART brick, which lights up and makes sounds based on what’s near. In this set, it’ll make noises as Pikachu trains on a training dummy or stops for a snack. Ages 6+

When kids care for and nurture Gabby the Tiger, she actually grows larger! She also makes more than 100 sounds and reactions in response to her bottle, toy, or being petted. “My daughter loves that Gabby the Tiger grows as you care for her,” one parent told the Good Housekeeping Institute. “She tells me, ‘She is so cute! I’m her mommy!’ She loves taking care of her and that she can also shrink her down to a baby again.” Ages 4+; four AA batteries required

Good Housekeeping Institute kid testers loved how Tamagotchi Paradise lets you zoom in and out on a digital pet with the side wheel. Kids also liked that this generation of Tamagotchi lets them connect with their friends. Ages 6+
