 Top Christmas Toys Searched On Google

It’s that time of year again.

Santa is making his list and checking it twice. And Google too is getting in on the list action.

The Internet giant has compiled the most searched for, or top trending, toys in November.

It’s a pretty good measure of what parents will be buying, er, I mean what Santa will be hauling down the chimney this year.

Here’s the list starting with the most popular:

AMERICAN GIRL

She’s 18 inches tall and she’s the most popular toy on the Internet. Mattel’s American Girl line of dolls and accessories was the most searched for toy last month. Google does not specify which American Girl — Addy, Caroline, Josefina — got the most clicks. But Isabelle Palmer is this year’s Girl of the Year. She’s an “inspired dancer” with “sparkling hazel eyes” and she will set you back $120 or $134 if she has pierced ears.

MY LITTLE PONY

Christmas isn’t supposed to be spooky. But don’t tell that to all the people searching for Ouija Boards online.

The standard, non-glow-in-the-dark Ouija Board, can be had for $19.99.

PEPPA PIG
