Global Toys & Games Market is valued approximately USD 305.4 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 4.70% over the forecast period 2023-2030. Toys and games refer to a diverse range of objects and activities designed for entertainment, amusement, and play. They encompass physical objects, such as dolls, action figures, puzzles, board games, construction sets, and electronic toys, as well as activities that involve imaginative play, outdoor games, sports, and video games. Toys and games serve various purposes, including fostering creativity, promoting social interaction, developing cognitive skills, providing recreational enjoyment, and stimulating physical activity. They cater to individuals of different age groups and interests, offering a wide array of experiences that engage, entertain, and facilitate learning and enjoyment. The driving factors boosting the market are growing population of children and increasing disposable income of parents who can afford to buy different types of toys.
According to Statista, the global population of children were estimated to be approx. 1.98 billion and it is expected to reach approx. 2.03 billion in 2040, thus driving the market. Another factor driving the market growth is increasing disposable incomes that enable parents to spend more on toys and games for their children. As household incomes improve, consumers have greater purchasing power and are willing to invest in high-quality and innovative toys and games. Moreover, integration of technology such as augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) into toys and games is expected to create lucrative opportunities in the market. However, the availability of substitute products and intense competition among established players and new entrants stifles market growth throughout the forecast period of 2023-2030.
The key regions considered for the Global Toys & Games Market study includes Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. North America dominated the market in 2022 owing to the dominance of its strong consumer base with a high disposable income, growing emphasis on educational and STEM toys, and effective marketing and advertising campaigns. However, Asia Pacific is expected to become the fastest growing during the forecast period, owing to factors such as rising preference for educational toys beyond core skills, increasing awareness of early childhood development and education, and expansion of retail infrastructure, including shopping malls, toy stores, and e-commerce platforms.
