However, as children continue to spend more time at home, parents are posed with the new challenge of keeping them both entertained, educated, and engaged throughout the day—not the easiest task for any busy caretaker. Thus, it's only natural to want to get your hands on the top-rated toys that will provide hours of fun and stimulation.
