2011 HOT Holiday Toy List

I usually check out the Black Friday deals, and sometimes venture out to score a great sale. With my boys, I usually find out what's hot this year ahead of time, but since we've given up TV completely, my kids are a little out of the loop, too. If you are like me and like to be in the know when it comes to what your kids maybe asking for this year, here is a list of some of the Hot Holiday Toys for 2011. Who knows, you may even catch an early deal.
