Amazon Toys We Love List 2021 | Source: Amazon

Just in case you haven’t heard, there is a global shipping crisis that is having a major impact on the availability of stuff we all need and want. If you’ve been to the store lately, you’ve probably noticed that certain items are inexplicably out of stock. The complicated crisis in the supply chain is affecting everything, and yes, that means toys, too. While we always recommend shopping early to avoid disappointment during the holiday season, this year is unique so take our advice: shop early for toys!

With that in mind, Amazon just unveiled its picks for the hottest toys and games of the year with a selection that includes more than 70 products that are only available through Amazon.com or its new Amazon Pop Up Stores in select cities.
