It is that time of the year. Your kids, grandkids, nieces and nephews are eagerly waiting for their Christmas gifts. Lets assume that you aren't sure of what is on their list. But, its a little late to ask the parents because it would look like you forgot about them. So what are you going to do? First, its important to realize that you aren't alone. This happens to a lot of people every shopping season. With so many people to shop for its bound to happen. Lets start by checking out the top rated Christmas toys of the year.

How do you go about looking for the top rated toys of 2010? In my experience, the three best places to start are amazon, Walmart and toys r us websites. These three retailers have lists of the bestselling toys, customer reviews and videos showing the products in action. In addition, you will also find gift guides for children of different age groups. So, most of the work has been done for you. If you are fortunate enough to have a lot of time and want to just have to look at what you are buying in person, then you might want to check out the nearest toys r us location. Its important to remember that most stores sell out of the popular toys faster than the online retailers like amazon or eBay.

For those who are looking for a gift ideas without jumping through hoops here are a few toys worth considering:
