Back to basics for ‘Dream Dozen’ Christmas toys

PARENTS, you might want to start saving: the Toy Retailers’ Association has published its list of must-have Christmas gifts.

The list compiled by the British-based association is likely to act as a billboard for toy shops around the country and a potential headache for harassed parents, particularly in these straitened financial times.

The so-called ‘dream dozen’ range from €97 for the Lego City Airport, to almost €23 for the Moon Dough Barn.
