New York, NY – May 22, 2024 | From outdoor water play and active toys to creative art kits and family games for rainy days, 25 of the hottest toys and games of the season as voted on by top-tier toy and family content creators were unveiled today just in time for Memorial Day weekend. Families are now invited to shop toys from the “Best of Spring & Summer 2024 Influencer Choice List,” presented by The Toy Association and powered by Clamour.
“The ‘Best of Spring & Summer 2024 Influencer Choice List’ brings together the best of both worlds: the top toy picks from esteemed influencers and reliable brands that parents can trust to bring their kids endless fun all summer long,” said Adrienne Appell, executive vice president of marketing communications at The Toy Association. “As families are eager to kick off the summer season, they’re sure to find something to fit every age and interest, whether it’s a new outdoor staple, travel-ready game, or creative toys that will keep minds sharp over summer vacation.”
More than 500 leading digital content creators and influencers in the Clamour network were invited to vote on products submitted by toy brands this spring. Influencers were required to have at least one million monthly views on their main platform and a social reach of more than half a million.
