November 2003 (Newstream) -- With thousands of new toys introduced every holiday season, each claiming to be the most fun, innovative, or educational, how is a parent to know which toys will live up to their advertising and which will sink to the bottom of the toy chest? Fortunately, there are dozens of awards programs and "Best Toy of the Year" lists devoted to sorting through the clutter to find the winners. Out of thousands of new toys tested in six different Best Toy tests, 200+ products have been featured and only 25 have been honored with two or more Best Toy wins.
