According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Toys Market Size, Share, Trends and Forecast by Product Type, Age Group, Sales Channel, and Region, 2025-2033”, offers a comprehensive analysis of the industry, which comprises insights on the global toys market share. The report also includes competitor and regional analysis, and contemporary advancements in the global market.


The global toys market size was valued at USD 113.94 Billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 196.3 Billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 6.2% during 2025-2033.



Global Toys Market Dynamics:


Rising Demand for Educational and STEM Toys:

The global toys market is seeing a notable increase in demand for educational and STEM-related toys. This is a direct result of the shift towards skill development and cognitive learning for children. Today, parents are purchasing toys that augment their children’s problem-solving, creativity, and critical thinking skills instead of toys that offer mindless fun. In response, the industry is launching interactive kits, coding games, and science experiment sets for children of different ages. The increase in the number of e-learning platforms and hybrid models of education has also accelerated the demand for these toys, as they foster learning and are fun to use.


In addition, government and educational bodies are actively promoting STEM education, providing new avenues for industry stakeholders.

The educational toys market is propelling forward as it aligns with the vision of the consumers who are now leaning towards toys that augment their academic and personal skills. This shift defines the growing consumer preference as toys that aid in learning, making the educational toys market the centerpiece of growth in the decade to come.


Digital Integration and Smart Toy Innovations:


The emergence of digital technologies within the realm of smart toys is redefining play value and expanding the growth potential of the market. Toys that integrate AI, augmented reality (AR), and mobile applications not only stimulate interest, but also provide adaptive and personalized play experiences. Smart toys offer the ability to adjust to a child’s learning pace, monitor progress, and provide customized engagement, which improves the child’s overall experience.

The ubiquity of smart devices within households has also empowered manufacturers to easily market toys that integrate the digital and physical worlds.

The demand for products is also being accelerated by the popularity of tech-driven character-based franchises, video game ecosystems, and the convergence of multimedia. While safety and data privacy are critical issues, businesses that invest in secure technologies designed specifically for children stand to gain an edge in the market. The change in these technologies not only increases interest from younger generations, but also creates room for more premium pricing and positioning.


Sustainability and Eco-Friendly Toy Production:


Sustainability is increasingly an important issue in the global toys market and both consumers and manufacturers have become more conscious of the environment. Parents are now looking for toys made with recycled plastics, organic fabrics, and wood that is harvested sustainably. In turn, leading brands are launching eco-certified lines and are switching to minimal or biodegradable packaging to curb waste.


These brands are also responding to stricter laws or self-imposed mandates for corporate carbon-neutrality. This eco-conscious production aligns with the buying habits of consumers, especially millennial and Gen Z parents who value the carbon footprint of their purchases. In addition, brands are able to positively influence their reputation and customer loyalty while tapping into environmentally conscious niche markets. If awareness of sustainability initiatives continues to rise, the demand for green innovation is likely to become a mainstream market driver that impacts the global design, sourcing, and distribution of products.
