Market Growth Rate (2024-2032) | 5.70% |
Rise of educational and science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) toys
Parents are increasingly recognizing the importance of toys that not only entertain but also educate and develop critical thinking skills in their children. STEM toy acronyms are becoming increasingly popular because they foster creativity, problem-solving abilities, and intellectual development. These toys range from simple building blocks to advanced robotic kits that teach coding and engineering concepts. The emphasis on early childhood education and the integration of play-based learning in curriculums are propelling the demand for educational toys. Manufacturers are continuously innovating to develop toys that align with educational standards and appeal to both parents and children, strengthening the market growth.
The growing popularity of licensed merchandise
The surge in licensed toys, based on popular movies, TV shows, video games, and comic book characters that are highly popular among children and collectors alike is aiding in market expansion. Brands such as Disney, Marvel, and LEGO capitalize on the immense fan base of their franchises by producing toys that resonate with popular culture. Consequently, the release of blockbuster films and TV series, fueled by the powerful marketing campaigns and media presence of these franchises, which create a strong emotional connection with consumers is boosting the demand for related toys and merchandise. Moreover, the integration of technology in licensed toys, such as interactive action figures and augmented reality (AR) experiences, further enhances their appeal. Additionally, the rise in adult collectors who seek nostalgia and exclusivity is further impelling the market growth.
Increasing demand for sustainable and eco-friendly toys
Environmental awareness and the push for sustainability are influencing consumer preferences, with parents seeking toys that are safe for their children and the planet. Concerns about how plastic toys affect the environment and a desire for non-toxic, renewable materials are driving this trend. Manufacturers are responding by developing toys made from recycled plastics, organic fabrics, and sustainably sourced wood. For instance, toys 'R' Us is pioneering eco-friendly initiatives by becoming the first toy retailer in the Philippines to feature the Barbie Loves the Ocean collection. This product line is predominantly crafted from 90% recycled ocean-bound plastic components, accompanied by the Beach Shack playset and accessories, which are made from over 90% recycled plastic materials. The growing adoption of the circular economy in this industry which emphasizes the design of durable and recyclable toys to produce long-lasting and repairable goods, is aiding the market expansion.
