The Rubik’s Cube was just the beginning. Then came the Cabbage Patch Kids (and Garbage Pail Kids), Trivial Pursuit, Transformers, Barney, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, My Little Pony, Beanie Babies, and Pokemon, and bunch more along the way. One main offering a year. They went viral before that meant anything. The debate has always been, “did the marketers force these products on us or did consumers go out in full force on their own without the aid of commercials?” The marketing geniuses – when they get lucky – like to point to their own efforts, else how would they get the jobs. Consumers say they made the choice themselves. It’s probably a combination of the two, with a little more emphasis being placed on the marketing influences.

So we come to the new Christmas season. New toys. New gimmicks. New products. “Which of these new toys will go viral?” is the kazillion dollar question would love to know the answer to. Even if they got it right on one product for one year, they could retire tomorrow.

Two toys from the 2016 shopping season seem to be making a resurgence into the 2017 market: Fingerlings and Hatchimals.

Fingerlings are essentially finger puppets that wrap around the finger. They small, cute, and will be fun for kids under about seven or eight. Perhaps there will even be an offshoot for parents much like My Little Pony had their Bronies. Yeah, let’s hope not.

Hatchimal creatures first start out inside a large egg. When your child plays with the egg long enough, it hatches and out comes a fuzzy creature. But it doesn’t end there. It talks and walks and dances. Your child needs to be able to nurture it through baby, toddler, and kid stages. (Sorry, there are no Adolescent or Adult stages)

So, you’re buying a pig in a poke, so to speak, it hatches, and needs to be cared for much like the Tamagotchi digital pets of a few years ago. This year’s offering is called the Surprise! You’ll get two eggs for the price of probably one and a half. Double the fun at less than double the cost. To be fair, though, they are cute little creatures, and your kids could spend loads of time with them.

Marketers seem to be pushing these two toys this year but it’s anybody’s guess which toy will dominate the market. Actually, the market is ripe for three or four viral toys.

Toy storage bins are helpful in many ways. These toy organizing systems of containers and baskets can not only store your kids toys, but also be a teaching tool. The bin units are sold in all the popular retail stores and come in plastic, wood and other materials to meet the needs of parents.

If you are looking for a better way to store your child’s toys than in a big box, then toy storage bins are worth a look. There are usually multiple slots and bins for use as storing units for toys of all shapes and sizes. Having them organized and separated will help them stay intact and prevent them from being broken easily as when storing in one big box.

Besides organization, parents can use these storage bins for toys as a teaching tool. Responsibility is something should be taught to every kid. This trait will continue to help them as they grow up to be adults. Having to clean up after oneself after taking all the toys out to play can be a rule and the toy storing bins can be a huge aid in this life lesson.

Also, kids can easily be taught or reinforced in the topic of colors with these bin units as they often come in different colors. Teaching your child to put certain toys in certain colored bins can not only help with color recognition, but as a memory tool as well. Getting creative with cleaning up and organizing can go a long way to making a child understand the importance of these concepts in everyday life at an early age.

Although there are different ideas and solutions for toy storage on the market, storage bins are great for parents that want an option that will match and fit into their current home decor and living space. This can be seen in the wooden storage shelves that have been made and toy storage furniture that has become popular.

Toy storage can be much more than just having a place to put children toys when not in use so that you don’t step on them at night. These units and bin systems can become part of the home and an advantageous teaching and leaning tool for your kids. Many people overlook this fact and just think of them as compartments where toys are dumped. Thinking creatively and out of the box will transform your toy storage bins into something you and your kids will remember for years to come.
