Even though it's only June, retail giant Argos has been quick off the mark to predict what will fly of the shelves during this year's festive season. Perhaps the release is so that parents can start saving ... And fast forwarding to Christmas Future, Argos polled 1,000 children aged five to 13 for their insight into what toys will star on Christmas wishlist in a decade's time. Over a quarter of children in the region predict self-building LEGO (26%) and 14% believe that toys that can tidy themselves away will be festive must-haves in 2026. There'll be more virtual reality games (41%), conversational robots (37%) and toys that never run out of batteries (35%).

Commenting on the predictions, Linzi Walker, Chief Toy Buyer for Argos says: "This year's list shows just how much toys are evolving – lots of our Top Toys have their roots in parents' Christmas Past. Now they've truly moved on, with more sophisticated tech, realistic life-like functions and up-to-date pop culture references. "We've progressed from the toy caterpillar that toddlers could pull across the floor, to one that starts infants on the road to clever coding. Where once there was a baby doll that simply looked like the real thing, we now have one that SMELLS as sweet as a newborn. And while past festivities might have featured a karaoke machine, 2016's budding Beliebers will be making and sharing their own pop videos with a SelfieMic." She adds: "With cross-generation appeal toys from LEGO, NERF and Star Wars, households are expected to be lively and fun across the UK this Christmas." Argos' poll also revealed that construction toys are the most played-with toys among children in our region (70%), with LEGO being named the favourite toy ever by 19% of kids.
