We've all been through a lot this year, and that goes for the kids in our lives, too. So many of their regular activities have been disrupted, and finding ways to keep them engaged, entertained, and learning has been challenging, to say the least. Toys and games have taken on an even more important role in our kids' lives because they help add joy and imagination to their days, and what parent doesn't want that for their child? Now, toys can't solve all the world's problems, but they can be a delightful addition to a child's life, which is why we were inspired to put together a list of some of the best-selling toys under $50 at Target.com.
