Hello all, please join us for Toy Talk 2026. Since Santa is known to be a toy maker, it is our turn to learn the latest trends in toys and the hottest toys on the market today. So, when that child asks for that ??? toy and you think “what is that?” now you may know. We will not only cover the hottest toys on the market, but we will look back at toys through the years taking you back to your childhood days. We will be discussing Development of children and how it relates to what we as Christmas performers see and encounter. Age-appropriate toys will also be discussed and how we can help parents out with gift choices. Of course, we will not forget our Neurodiverse children. We will be covering toys that work with them and their development. Throughout there will be trivia opportunities, questions to test your knowledge, giveaways and raffles all to keep your interest. A full four-hour learning session to enhance our knowledge of toys. The price of the tickets covers the purchase of give aways and demonstration toys. We will also be contributing $10-$15 depending on attendance, per ticket price to support their Annual toy fundraiser in partnership with New Haven police department to provide toys to children in need in the community. Looking forward to a fun learning opportunity and thank you for your support. Light snacks and refreshments will be available.
