The festive season is not a competition of money spent - the amateur’s yardstick - but of delight inspired - the true measure of a gift. And if you are an adult and are terrified by the idea of hearing the cry of disappointed kids unwrapping mismatched gifts on Christmas morning, oh-oh-oh, have we got news for you.

After scouring eBay for the beautiful, the useful, and the absurd, we have compiled a comprehensive list of top toy predictions for Christmas 2021. You’ll find gift ideas for toddlers and old believers, including the most sought-after games you might not have even heard about until now, but believe us, they’re going to be on *that* list.

And all of this without the need to mortgage your house, because Santa loves you, too.
