Chris Byrne a.k.a “The Toy Guy” came to town from New York City with his “Hot Products Great Toys for the Summer Fun!” list.
Chris says “…here it is summer of 2022. COVID-19 isn’t done with us yet, but people are a little more courageous about travel, thanks to vaccines and continued attention to being careful. However, prices for airfares, gas, and hotels are way up, so we’re predicting that vacations are going to be a bit shorter and perhaps a bit closer to home. That means that the backyard continues to be a hot destination for Summer fun…”
He says in 2021, spending on toys and particularly outdoor items skyrocketed. And this year looks like it’s going to be about the same. You’ll be able to find bikes, swing sets, and pools more easily, but those are infrequent purchases. So, if you’re looking to restock the toy box for this summer, Chris says you will want to check out his list of the cool stuff he has been playing with.
