Top 10 Toys for Christmas 2016

Toys, toys, toys. Every year there seems to be a number of must-have Christmas gifts on the market. You know, the toy your kid feels they absolutely, positively cannot live without.  Every parent knows what I mean.

When I think of the most popular toy of the season, I am quickly reminded of one of my favorite holiday films, Jingle All the Way.
