1. Fingerlings. Fingerlings. The best-selling toy on Amazon in 2019 (and in 2018 too). The secret is that it is cheap, very fun, and suitable for children of different ages. Even adults sometimes get one for themselves to play with at work. Fingerlings are funny little monkeys (and now other animals too, even dinosaurs), that attach to your finger, holding on with their tail, hands, and whatever else they can. When you move your finger or pet them, they also wag their tail at you, blink, open their mouth, talk, and turn their head. You can even lull them to sleep. The toy can be hung anywhere in the apartment, not just on a finger. For example, many people perch them on a plant or on a laptop.
Price on Amazon.com: from $8.
2. Hatchimals. The main gimmick of Hatchimals is that you can raise them. You need to look after the egg, keep it in proper conditions so that your little animal hatches from it. By that time, the child has already formed a warm bond with it. You can choose different sizes of your furry little Hatchimals. There are small eggs sold for $11 (and inside there are three little animals). Bigger eggs for $17, $20, $30. And really huge Hatchimals with an egg half the size of a child for $90 (and inside there are two twin Hatchimals with different personalities). The little animals also, like Fingerlings, know how to share their feelings and give the owner who “raised” them lots of love.
Price on Walmart.com: from $11. At Target.com, the small ones (pinky-sized) are sold from $4.99.
3. LOL Surprise. Well, all parents already know about this toy anyway. Small dolls, half the fun of which is in the process of unboxing them. They come in an opaque egg. You never know what is inside. And the child opens them, taking out each of the extra accessories one by one. Each doll has from 6 to 14 of them (depending on the type of egg). Outfits, combs of different colors, shoes, stickers, a little mirror, a bottle, a watch, glasses. And at the very end — the long-awaited doll! You can feed her or bathe her to discover surprises (for example, a color change, and they can also pee). Each doll has its own pet and its own little sister, who also comes in a surprise capsule (and you do not know which one you will get.
Price on Amazon.com: from $11.

4. Poopsie Slime Surprise unicorns. Keep the especially impressionable away from the screens! If you still do not know what Poopsie unicorns are, they may shock you. They are made by the same company as LOL Surprise, only this is the next level. It is essentially three or four toys in one. First, the child enjoys unboxing the unicorn with all its accessories, including diapers, a potty, a cup of food, a spoon, a comb, and so on. The unicorn itself is much bigger than an LOL Surprise doll, about 20 cm tall (and there are also 35 cm versions). Second, the unicorn can be fed special food that comes in the set. And when it goes to the bathroom, you end up with slime. Which children also love to play with.
Price on Amazon.com: from $47 (at Walmart and Target — from $50).
5. Hairdorables. Much more standard and traditional toys. The main point here is the hair. It is almost real here! By the way, you also cannot tell right away which toy is inside the box. And there are 36 different ones here! Each one has its own story, lifestyle, and accessories (there is a vlogger, a skater, a beauty queen, an artist, a sweet tooth, an inventor, a basketball player). In each box — a doll and 10 surprises for her. There is обязательно a comb so the hair can be styled in different ways. In America, the newest versions of the dolls are available, Series 3.
Price on Amazon.com and Walmart.com: $12.88.
6. Blume Dolls. So far less popular than LOL Surprise or Hatchimals, but with the same idea. You buy a doll, you do not know what is inside, and then you “grow” it yourself and get the result. The only difference is that here the doll is partly a plant, kind of like Groot. You get it in a pot, and you need to water it so that it grows. 22 doll variants, each with 10 accessories. By the way, they later live in the pot you grew them from. There are rare and super-rare dolls with surprises, getting and growing which is considered a great stroke of luck.
Price on Amazon.com and Walmart.com: from $9.88.
The cost of all these modern toys in America is 2-3 times lower than in Russia (check for yourself). The same Blume Dolls in the USA cost the equivalent of 650 rubles, while in Russia — for some reason up to 1990 rubles. Besides, the very latest models are simply not sold in the Russian Federation. Buy directly in America, save money, get a good selection. You can ship to Russia quickly and cheaply with amail forwarding intermediary in the USA Pochtoy.com. The package will be in your city in just 4-8 days! With full insurance and at the minimum price.
