This year's selections for entry into the National Toy Hall of Fame have been made, and we must offer a big congratulations to American Girl Dolls, the board game Risk, and....Sand.
The three entries beat out nine other finalists who didn't recieve enough votes from toy industry experts, historians, and the general public to make it into the Hall of Fame this year.
American Girl Dolls, Risk, and Sand (yes actual sand, like from a beach or sandbox) beat out Battleship, billiards, Cabbage Patch Kids, the Fisher-Price Corn Popper. Mahjong, Masters of the Universe toys, the piñata, The Settlers of Catan, and toy fire engine.
Last year's inductees, per the Museum of Play, included Jenga, sidewalk chalk, and Baby Nancy.
