With ongoing inflation, we all want to find wallet-friendly toys that will inspire and excite the kids on our list.
And, it's never too early for holiday shoppers to get started on buying gifts for under the tree — in fact, there are many benefits.
To help us get inspired, Zulily's toy expert Joe Glass joined us with top toys for the season.
Joe says their research shows that inflation has impacted 92 percent of household budgets, but moms are saving room in those budgets for toys.
Zulily can help you get the most value for your holiday with Zulily's Santa's Workshop, filled with this year's hottest toys and savings of up to 50 percent off.
Zulily is an online superstore that delivers a fun shopping experience for moms without breaking the bank.
Along with daily deals – those flash sales – mom can find her favorite brands like LEGO®, Fisher-Price, KidKraft, Step2, Melissa & Doug all available every day at everyday prices moms can't resist.
It's a one-stop-shop, where fun is part of the deal.
Joe says one top top is a LEGO set. Whether you're a preschooler, high schooler, or an old schooler, there's a LEGO gift on Zulily for you. A family favorite are the LEGO® Succulents, part of their Botanical Collection, they look so real, and the real neat thing is there's multiple instructions booklets, so the whole family can build at the same time. A toy that will help build lasting memories, which is another big toy trend for this year, toys that bring parents and kids together.
A favorite from the learning through play trend is Big Feelings Pineapple Set. It includes 26 different face pieces to help kids identify their emotions, and we've all been going through a lot of emotions these past few years, this toy can help parents and kids talk about all the feels they're feeling. And you can feel good cause you're getting great toy deals on Zulily.com.
Joe also told us a toy that encourages play and imagination — a Pirate Ship from Playmobil, the Skull Pirate Ship! This ship actually floats in water. But, it also has wheels on the bottom if you fancy yourself a land lover.
Zulily loves Barbie, she can do anything, and Barbie has backyard chickens with Mattel's Barbie Hatch & Gather Egg Farm. This Doll Set lets kids explore a world of farm fun, and with the included dough kids can mold eggs and 'hatch' baby chicks.
And one of Zulily's all-time favorites is the Wooden Coffee Machine Set by Melissa & Doug, those pretend play tea parties can now include a kick of coffee so kids can mimic making mom's favorite morning brew.
