As for trends, it seems that adorable animals and tech-based toys will interactive features are some of the most popular themes this year, such as Coding Critters (£40), which teaches pre-school children the basics of early STEM concepts - without using any screens.

We've got the full list below, in no particular order.
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker D-O Interactive Droid, £112
Got any Star Wars fans on your Christmas list this year? This is the robot we're all going to fall in love with for Christmas 2019, as D-O can be driven, interacted with and will even play with his infra-red ball, so you get all the joy of Star Wars and robots rolled into one.
Boppi the Booty Shakin' Llama, £20.25
If its cute llama look wasn't enough, it also dances along to three different songs, complete with booty shaking and head spinning motions. A great one for kids to dance along to with now that everyone is so into their dancing.
Fisher-Price Linkimals, £25
A baby toy that interacts with your little one too, clapping its hands and bobbing its head along to fun lights, songs and music.
It's super easy to use too, with little ones able to press a button on the Linkimals foot for songs and phrases about the alphabet, numbers, opposites and colours.
A Fisher-Price classic.
Juno My Baby Elephant, £56
Yet another interactive animal, Juno has a playful moving trunk that responds to your touch. She's also a lot more emotionally advances than other toys, as you'll need to coax her out of her shyness when you first meet, but you'll soon be playing games with her and cuddling, with lots of things she can do for you to find out as you get to know her.
Coding Critters, £35.73
Despite being completely screen free, it's a very early introduction to teaching your children to code that will have them heading off to Silicon Valley earning a fortune within no time.
Choose between a cute little dog or cat then press the buttons on their back to make them move in sequence and interact with you and other objects.
Scruff-a-luvs, £14.99
While a messy, tangled ball of matted fur might not look like the prettiest toy in the shop, it turns out that's the whole point.
A great concept of adopting and loving a rescue pet that you can bring to life and cherish is a really good lesson for children, and adds a touch of morality to the excesses of Christmas.
LEGO Hidden Side, £79.99
Any Christmas list is not complete without a bit of LEGO, and after you've finished building this one, you can take it up a notch by interacting with an app, turning traditional gifts into more modern versions with a simple change.
Pictionary Air, £15.99
A fun new way to play the classic game, it's had a modern day update and now includes technology.
For the first time, players can interact with their drawings! Drawing a hat? Pose with it on your head! An umbrella? Shelter underneath it, for your team to try and guess.
The catch is, the person drawing cannot see what it looks like, only their team can see via the app on a device, or the whole room can look when connected to a TV. Then watch your video back for plenty more giggles.
Osmo creative kit, £99.99
The new hand-me-down toy, you can keep using this with your kids for years to come, so it really is the gift that keeps on giving.
Turning iPad sessions into interactive educational playtime, it turns the passive activity of sitting in front of an iPad into a creative session.
Owleez, £32
Not just another 'nurturing toy' for children to pet, love and look after, but that is what you must do in order to give your Owleez the confidence to... fly! A mix between a lovable pet morphed with a drone, you can tell how your pet is feeling from its eye colour, and when the flying happens you can help, watch, or comfort her after a crash landing.
We want one for ourselves!
Tonies Starterset, £69.95
A robust 'child-proof' speaker, just download your content and the story is activated by a 'Tonie' figure placed magnetically on top.
Ideal for families that are split between different locations, or parents that often aren't home in time for the bedtime story, this could mean that grandparents can send bedtime stories to your child, without physically being there.
