(NASDAQ:AMZN) – Amazon.com today announced its 2014 Holiday Toy List (www.amazon.com/holidaytoylist), a curated list of the hottest new products for kids including top-rated toys, fun family games, innovative electronics, popular books and movies, video game favorites, the latest sporting goods and more. This holiday season, Amazon is offering more deals than ever before on the toys and games customers want with deals every single day. Starting today, customers can enjoy Fisher-Price Lightning Deals with additional deals from top brands such as Mattel, Disney and Melissa & Doug to follow.
For the first time, the annual Holiday Toy List includes commentary from Amazon product experts and toy enthusiasts on the latest toy trends. Customers can browse a variety of new categories, including Mom Picks, Wood & Recycled, Active Playtime, Retro, S.T.E.M., Classic Brands, Innovation and In The Movies, to discover relevant gift ideas and personal anecdotes from Amazon editors. With the easy-to-use gift finder, customers can shop the Holiday Toy List using intuitive search filters – category, brand, age, gender, price range and discount. Shoppers can also explore best-sellers and leverage customer reviews to help them pick the perfect gift for kids of all ages this holiday season.
“There are more than a million toys and games to choose from on Amazon, and our passionate team of in-house editors are working hard to make it super easy for customers to discover the most wished-for gifts of the holiday season at great prices,” said Eva Lorenz, Category Leader of Toys & Games for Amazon.com. “You also can’t beat the convenience of shopping from anywhere, at any time – avoid busy parking lots, crowded stores and long checkout lines and spend more quality time with your family and friends by shopping on Amazon.”
More than half of Amazon.com customers shopped using a mobile device last holiday season. Between Thanksgiving and Cyber Monday in 2013, Amazon.com customers ordered more than five toys per second from a mobile device. This year, customers can shop for the latest toys and games wherever they go using the Amazon shopping app which now includes both voice and vision searching capabilities. Customers can search with their smartphone camera or use the new microphone icon and add a new favorite to their child’s wish list in seconds.
