Editors’ Rankings
TimetoPlayMag.com Ratings and Reviews
At TimetoPlayMag.com, we want to engage, inform and entertain our readers to give them the benefit of our knowledge, experience and the breadth of products we cover. We look at more than 10,000 new toys and children’s products every year, and our primary purpose is to help you make the best choices for the kids in your life.
Our goal is to give you the real story on what you’ll find when you bring a toy home. And we know that every kid and every family is different. That’s why we always say: “The hot toy is only hot if it’s hot for your child.”
Our editorial team has more than 100 years combined experience working in the toy industry. Our rating system ranks toys on 4 key criteria:
- Fun — Does it engage the child? Does it inspire imaginative play? Does it contribute to creative expression? Is it entertaining?
- Repeat Play OR Collectibility — Some toys are played with, some are collected. If we feel a toy is better suited for collectibility, we’ll rank it based on Collectibility instead of Repeat Play.
- Repeat Play — Will kids come back to it over time? Does the toy allow diverse imaginative play experiences? Does it provide longer-term play value?
- Collectibility — Some toys may have limited traditional play, but kids will treasure them as collectibles.
- Assembly/Instructions — Is the toy easy to assemble? Are the instructions clear?
Over the years we’ve learned a lot about what makes great toys and exciting play experiences. We want to help you create the best experiences for your kids and your family.
Ultimately, you’re the best judge of what you want to bring into your home — and what’s best for your kids. And because you’re an important part of the Time to Play family, we invite you to let us know if you ever find an error or have any ideas how we can better help you. After all, we exist for one reason: to help you have more fun!
Enter the world of Thomas & Friends with new preschool building blocks playsets from MEGA. Celebrating the 65th anniversary of this beloved brand, MEGA's building sets allow kids to create their very own Thomas & Friends stories. Kids will love interacting with their favorite engine friends through the creative play offered by these playsets.
The buildable, four-foot long Busy Day at the Quarry playset includes detailed Thomas and Mavis characters, a working crane, coal, a coal chute, buildable blocks, and a ramp. Kids can help Thomas and Mavis transport rocks from the quarry to the dock. Use the storage bucket to climb and race the engines up and down the ramps. The crane helps Thomas lift heavy rocks.
Race Thomas down the ramps and bring him to new heights with a working ferris wheel, part of the Thomas at the Sodor Fair playset. This scenic, buildable set includes a decorated Thomas, a working Ferris wheel, building blocks, a fair tent, and ramps. Build and rebuild the fair to make every visit unique!
These are great sets for any young Thomas fan. The packages double as large pieces of the set-up and as durable storage units. The directions are easy to follow, and all the sets fit together so you can make a huge diorama. However, each set is fully self-contained with lots of play value and lots to keep kids engaged.
