This year, the retailer has also debuted a new and expanded assortment of boutique brand toys that were traditionally only found at smaller toy shops and are designed to inspire creative play.
“One of this year’s top toy trends is to focus on how creative play helps children advance cognitive development, increase exploration and recognize their abilities to function in the world,” says Ken Seiter, vice president, strategic communications, Toy Industry Association. “We are excited to see Target emphasizing the importance of creative play by offering this new and expanded assortment.”
