This Year's Top Christmas Toys

0:03 Caloroga Shark Media. Hey there, Johnny Mack with five good news Christmas stories. Let's take a look at what might be the hot toys this Christmas. The New York Post tells us the best game is Hasbro Connect four Frenzy. Not really sure what it is, but it's like Connect four on its side. They're also into the American Girl Truly Me doll, a little more customizable than in the Passion. Can get a doll that looks somewhat similar to you, while not fully customizable. There are a variety of dolls styles to choose from, with different hairstyles, colors, eye colors, skin tones, and outfits. One hundred and thirty five bucks on Amazon. Who know Golf, pop Mart, the monsters. These are some labooboo things. I'm not messing with that. Do you know about these things? The Post reminds us, depending on whom you ask, la booboos are either creepy or cute, but they're definitely collectible. Here we have the Just Play for Real Cocoa, The Tumbling Panda. It's a panda and it kind of tumbles.

1:03 That's fun. The Spinmaster, Jurassic World Primal Hatch, that's right, dinosaur fans will love hatching their own t rex and then training and playing with it to help it grow from baby to adult. Do we want an adult dinosaur running around the house. I'm not sure that's a good idea. This is back the v Tech Turn and Learn driver, one of those plastic steering wheels with like blinkers and windshield wipers. I had this in like nineteen seventy four. This to encourage es pretend play as baby's press buttons, turn the steering wheel and are introduced to early learning content. I had this or something a lot like it fifty years ago. Wow, well, let's do one more. It's the Bluey Supermarket. You can play out the fun of grocery shopping with Bluey and Bingo. It includes Bluey and Bingo figures, plus a kid powered escalator, and you can wonder how did everything get so expensive? Here in the supermarket. Cassie doesn't care that you're upset that she put her Christmas tree up in early September. She says, it's the magic for me. This is like a sacred room to me.

1:58 We come in and we watch movie together. It's a happy place for us. Who's up to her? She should keep Christmas decorations up all year. And in case you're curious, they still celebrate Halloween. She says, we do all the pumpkins. We're just surrounded by Christmas at the same time, The movie previously titled A Cherry Pie Christmas has a new title. It is now called A Wisconsin Christmas Pie. That'll be out October ninth. You'll find that one on Great American Pure Flicks. A Wisconsin Christmas Pie stars Katie Leclerk and Ryan Carnes and tells the homespun story of a Chicago pastry chef who returns to her small town roots in Door County during the holidays and must decide between her dream job and her family's struggling orchard business. You know how these movies go. There's a rekindled romance. Will they get together? Who knows? But it's A Wisconsin Christmas Pie.

2:50 And the guy who wrote this is the guy who wrote A Very Vermont Christmas and a Cape cod Christmas. So you know it's good. Remember the band Striper. They're putting out a Christmas album, this one called the Greatest Gift of All. It'll be out November twenty. First, they have a new single Winter Wonderland. Streiper's Michael Sweet said, We've wanted to record a Christmas album for many years. Ever since we released our first single, which was Reason for the Season back in nineteen eighty five, the fans have been asking for a full length Christmas album. Well, the time has finally come. We wanted to make an album of five traditional songs and five original songs, to put our own spin on our own Christmas album and not follow the pack, so to speak. We couldn't be more pleased with how it turned out. We recorded Reason for the Season in Winter Wonderland and we decided to go with Winter Wonderland as the next single, just to give you an idea of what it might sound like today.

3:37 In twenty twenty five. The track list The Greatest Gift of All, Go Tell It on the Mountain Heaven Came on Christmas Day, Little Drummer Boy, Still the Light, Silent Night on this Holy Night, Joined to the world, Reason for the Season and Winter Wonderland.
