"We're enlisting the help of the real toy experts – kids themselves – to help us decide what our Top Toys will be from a selection of the coolest, not-yet-released toys for the year. While for the kids this is a fun day, for us it's invaluable insights that help us to provide an offering that is in line with what our customers want," said Massmart’s Vice President of Group Marketing, Katherine Madley.

Toy reviewers Ryan Black and Ruva Zwane shared their favourite toys from the 2023 toys as the Avalanche Gel Shot Blue Blaster and Hasbro’s Twister Air of which the former toy was the number 1 rated toy for 2023. Their advice to the next group of kids who will be rating this year’s toys is to play safe, have fun and enjoy the awesome toys.
