Toys at Sweet Suite ’22 Like Christmas in July

Toys! Marvelous toys! Sweet Sweet ’22 came back live and in person just in time to celebrate Christmas in July.  It’s never too early to start previewing the hottest toys for the holidays and Sweet Suite always brings the best selections for Santa together in one place.

The hottest party of the summer returned to Chelsea Pier 60 after two years online and let me tell you it was super sweet to be back! A special thank you to the staff at The Toy Insider for bringing back the fun and allowing us toy enthusiasts to play again!  Their motto “We know play” certainly rings true. Everything from the location to the food, drinks and personal connections made for an incredible experience. From the moment I walked in the entrance I felt like a big KID in a candy shop!

Now let’s get to the toys!  I say it every year but its worth repeating…there are so many terrific toys at Sweet Suite it is impossible to feature them all.  Narrowing the list down is truly torture but I try my best. I look for fun, unique finds that the kids (and us KIDs at heart) are sure to love.
