The next few weeks will be a flurry of activity as parents buy gifts for the holidays, so what could be more appropriate to share at this time than the toy industry’s top picks for 2011 Toy of the Year Awards? Categorized by age, gender and other characteristics, this list will give you a description of the toy, manufacturer, price and manufacturer’s website.

If you’re unsure what is appropriate toy for a particular age level, this guide published by the Toy Association gives specific information about the abilities and interests of children from six months through 12 years, with suggestions for what play experiences are appropriate.
