As a parent, it has become an vital mission to stay on top of the "up and coming toys" news. Although it may not mean much to me, learning about the new toys coming out is life-changing experience for kids.
Remember back in the day when you would receive the WishBook Toy Catalog from Sears the month before Christmas? Page upon page filled with toys that could one day possibly exist in your own home if only you were good enough for Santa to bring it?
Yeah.
It's like that.
Hasbro is the source for toys, and they sent me a few of their hottest toys of Summer so I could share the info with you. You know: so you can have the information and be the coolest Mom or Dad in, as Bug would say, the whole entire universe.
I just gave you an amazing gift, friend.
Check out Hasbro's Must-Have Toys of the Summer:
Nerf Rebelle Dolphina Bow Blaster
As a fan of Hunger Games, I kind of love the Nerf Rebelle (possibly more than my kids). I feel a little bit like Katniss and her bow! This easy-to-load soaker can be filled with up to 25 ounces of water. You pull the handle back, push it forward and BLAM! A blast of water is sprayed at your target (i.e.: Dad). Show off your skill and soak your mark with the Dolphina Bow blaster!
(Retail: $16.99)
Who DIDN'T want a Super Soaker as a kid?! These soakers have come a long way. Soak like a champ with this incredibly versatile Tri Strike Crossbow. It's shaped like a crossbow and its arms deploy for 2 different modes of soakage. You can fire either a single stream of water (for long-range targets) or a a triple stream of water (for targets at close range)! This large-capacity soaker holds up to 40 ounces of water, so you'll be the top drencher with the Tri Strike Crossbow! You're pretty much guaranteed to get SOAKED with this one!

For fans of Marvel and the Spider-Man movies, this is the toy you need to get your spidey-hands on.
The Amazing Spider-Man Spider Vision Mask activates glowing web discs that let you pretend to take down your foes with a single sling, just like The Amazing Spider-Man! Press a button to activate the mask's spider vision, throw a web disc, and watch as it flies through the air with an amazing spider glow!
(Retail: $19.99)
Every generation of kids has a super-innovative toy that is simultaneously fun and interactive. For me, it was the Tamogochi (which I never actually got, by the way. THANKS, MOM). For my kids, it's the Furby BOOM toys. Furby Booms have minds of their own, and combines physical and digital ways to play! Depending on how you interact with your Furby Boom, it's personality will adapt and change. This new generation of Furbys has more than twice as many responses as the previous Furby. You can sync it to your iPad for even more interaction!
