These kids from Toy Shows of the past will get you into the festive spirit

But before we all cosy down to enjoy the festive ice-breaker, let's take a peep back at some of the top moments from Toy Shows of the past, courtesy of Ireland's amazing kids.

We've stuck with the excerpts centred around the little ones, because it's all about the kids, after all.
