When is Black Friday 2024?

Black Friday is on November 29th this year, however, normally, deals start to appear the week before the actual day and so it is good to be prepared and be on the look out for early deals. Deals also last longer than just Black Friday and run right through to Cyber Monday and even beyond that and into the following week.

It is always good to be prepared and maybe think about what you might be looking for in advance of Black Friday, as well as noting the retailers you are interested in with a Black Friday Wishlist.

What are the expected Black Friday toddler deals?

Last year, electronics such as kids' cameras and tablets, as well as things like the Yoto Player and tonie player, were popular in the Black Friday deals, along with other toys and winter clothing such as rain jackets.

The Cookeez Makery Oven Playset - Baked Treatz lets toddlers and children bake their own best friend. How cool is that? It makes a warm, deliciously scented plush friend which we love. One reviewer said, "my 3 year old loved this. Provided loads of fun for her and her 6 year old sister to go through the 'recipe' and make a little pet. There was lots of fighting over whose go it was, which is normally a good sign that it's worth playing with."

Everything you need to make the friend comes in the box too which is handy. Another reviewer commented, "I got this for my six year old little boy and he absolutely loved it. We got a mixing bowl and water and emptied the sachets into the bowl along with the water and after a little bit of stirring my little boy used the mould that was provided to make a dough cat. He then placed in the oven and turned the dial and a minute and a half later, we could hear purring and he open the door and there was a warm lovely smelling cat toy. My little boy was amazed and kept pressing its belly to hear it purr. The dough comes with a little bag so you can keep it sealed to reuse and you can put the toy back up into the top of the oven to redo it everything overall it was a fun experience."

We love that your little one can follow the animals' instructions and test sequencing, memory and matching skills to build their orders. They can press the bell when the order is ready and pay at the magic till. There is so much fun and learning to be had and even better, it is a really robust, durable toy. Although Laura Healy, commented, "it is tricky to clean with lots of small compartments and slots, we found it got dusty very quickly, even when played with daily."
