Parents brace for holidays as inflation hits the toy aisle hard

The Toy Insider editor-in-chief on the most notably cost-effecient toys from the "Hot 20 Toy List"

With the holiday season fast approaching and parents anticipating tough price hikes in the toy market, The Toy Insider editor-in-chief Marissa Silva brings the hottest and most cost-efficient toys on the market to "Mornings with Maria."

"We really recommend that consumers build in another 15% or so into your 15%. Now, it may be only working out to about two or three dollars per toy, but if you're buying for a lot of kids, it can add up pretty quickly," Marissa Silva told FOX Business' Maria Bartiromo on Wednesday.

"This is an amazing toy for 18 months and up. But it's a replica sort of these gaming chairs that adults and older kids are playing with when they play their video games. But this is really cute one," Silva continued. "It's really cool, educational and screen-free."

"When you drop in the letter, it recognizes the letter. It'll tell you which one you dropped in. So kids are learning phonics, letters, numbers," the editor-in-chief said.
