The top June 2021 toys trends explore remixes of familiar playthings, sustainable toy takeback programs and the next generation of collectibles powered by NFTs. TOYMINT, for example, creates a variety of toys that are paired with non-fungible tokens as digital assets that provide a unique sense of ownership, ultimately with the goal of helping families grow valuable toy collections.
With many kids and families still spending extended periods of time at home, toy brands are creating mess-free toys with easy-clean or non-stick sand, clay, foam and more. There are also a handful of edible toys that will disappear entirely after use, like Trolli's Sour Gummi Creations Martian Mix, the first buildable gummies from the brand that can be configured in more than 200 different ways.
