The Toy Guy, Chris Byrne, will be live in Hasbro’s studio on February 11th and 15th. From there, he will give people an inside view of what children will be asking for in 2010 for birthdays and even Christmas 2010. Each day will consist of a different set of toys ranging from hot sneak previews to fair favorites.

The Toy Fair is the largest international toy trade show in the Western Hemisphere where the newest and hottest products in the children’s entertainment marketplace are exhibited. It is the premier meeting place for manufacturers, retailers, importers and reps from around the world. Over 20,000 attendees come to see over 100,000 of the latest toy innovations. In addition to the hottest trends, attendees will also receive the latest news on Safety legislation for not only your family, but toy manufacturers.

Chris is the content director for TimetoPlayMag.com aka The Toy Guy®. Time to Play is the leading online resource for the latest information on what’s hot for this season’s toys. The toys featured in the tour have been selected by the Time to Play editorial team. They review thousands of toys every year, and only the best make it onto the TimetoPlaymag.com site. Chris receives no compensation from toy manufacturers for the use of their products in these segments.
