Cathy Ranson, editor in chief of Netmums, said: “The annual Toy Fair is the first place to pick up the year’s trends and 2015 looks like being all about a return to creative play.

“There are lots of affordable options for parents who like their kids to use retro real pens or molding clay as well as tapping on a tablet. And there are several stand-out figure toys which your child won’t want to put down, making them worth every penny.”

Natasha Crookes, director of communications from the BTHA, added: “It’s fantastic for these toys to be selected from the thousands launched at toy Fair this week.

“Toy makers work hard to come up with ideas for toys that will be loved by mums and kids alike and these are five great examples that have made it to the top of that list.”
