Target’s top toy list for Christmas 2019 is here!

Target’s playful mascot Bullseye just finished making his hottest toys of 2019 list which features popular characters like PAW Patrol and Barbie and top brands like Fisher-Price, Beyblade, L.O.L. Surprise! and Ryan’s World. In addition, five more toys from Bullseye’s Top Toys list will be revealed later this fall, including Target exclusives from Disney’s Frozen 2 and Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.

We studied Bullseye’s list and rounded up 10 of the toys we think will be the hottest at Target this holiday season. While we’re not quite ready for the holidays yet, peak gift-shopping season is just around the corner and we want to be prepared.

    Seriously, where is Nintendo Switch Lite on this list?!

    • Jen

      That’s only a few on the list. If you click the link at the end it’s on there.

      • snezhinka

        The Switch Lite is not on Target’s list, looks like just the original Switch.

    • Jessica

      I think they know that will fly off the shelf so maybe they’re pushing other toys? 🙂

      • simone

        really i have the switch i would not bother to get the same switch just lighter waste of money doing that

    • Susie

      The Switch Lite is definitely top on my daughters list! And it is just the regular Switch in this post…

    • simone

      its just toys not computer games

  2. Alex

    The nail stamper looks really cool

    • Amber (Hip Sidekick)

      I was thinking the same thing! SO neat!

    • Jennifer

      Does anyone have the nail stamper. I have a girl that loves all things to do with her fingernails so she would love it. Just curious how well it stamps. Seems to have high rating on Target’s site.

      • Jenni

        I don’t have this particular set but these have been around for years now. I actually really like it!(when I’m not to lazy to do my nails) it works really well! Theres a bit of a learning curve to get it to look perfect and not smudge but it’s really not hard.

  3. Jes

    Anybody’s kiddo have the LeapFrog Twist? Looks interesting for my 5 year old, but I’m worried she won’t use it much since she has a Kindle Kids.

    • Andrea

      It doesn’t look like the Twist is a tablet at all. It is just Leap Frog brand.

    • Jennifer (Hip Sidekick)

      It’s more of an interactive toy and not a tablet, Jes!

  4. NV

    Grabbed the Ryan toy chest thing. I can return it, I guess, if my son doesn’t show interest before Christmas l…but my 4yo LOVES him and I think he will love opening it. He needs absolutely nothing b/c my oldest son has so many toys he now uses so I was struggling a bit to figure out Christmas ideas for him. Thanks for posting!!

    • Jennifer (Hip Sidekick)

      You are so welcome and I hope he loves it, NV!

  5. Jessica

    I think the leap frog twist looks really cool! I’m just not sure how my two would do with sharing something like that. But at that price, I definitely don’t want to buy two!

  6. Themani

    I have 3 kids and they all want the Nintendo lite

    • Maggie

      why everyone was the nintendo lite? whats the difference? isn;t better to get the regular switch? thinking of bying a swith for my kids this crhistmas but now i m confused to which one should I get

  7. Kg

    Owleez and booty shaking lama need to be added to the list

    • Amber (Hip Sidekick)

      Thanks so much for the suggestions, Kg!

  8. Sarah

    Nothing on the lists impress me or my kids. These are almost the same toys from last years just different designs and Slime is getting old.
