Choosing The Right Fortnite Toys
Fortnite is one of the most popular online games with millions of dedicated players across the world, and has accrued a massive army of fans.
Fortnite toys range from action figures, to builder sets, and plushies, and can just further cement your child’s love for the game.
But not all young Fortnite fans will appreciate all the toys. What do I mean by this? Well, an action figure isn’t going to be the best choice for young children, because they have small parts.
Fortnite toys also serve different functions. A builder set can encourage creativity and improve cognitive development by encouraging children to think strategically.
Meanwhile, a plushie may be less dynamic, but can still be used in make-believe games, and is of course a familiar character to soothe children when they need it.
If you’ve been inspired by my list but don’t know which toy would be the best pick for your child, then I’ve created a small, handy guide below with a few factors to consider. When buying a toy for your Fortnite obsessed child, keep the following in mind:
Age
This is a crucial thing to keep in mind when buying Fortnite toys for your children, and of course, we’re all familiar with the fact that manufacturers are legally required to state possible safety hazards for children under a specific age.
When applied to Fortnite toys – especially the action figures – many of the tools or weapons are a potential choking hazard, so keep that in mind when buying Fortnite toys for your younger kids.
Articulation
If you haven’t heard this term before, it’s mostly associated with action figures. Toy articulation is crucial when it comes to action figures achieving different poses. Basically, the more articulation points an action figure has, the more varied its poses and positioning are.
So if you’re looking to buy a Fortnite action figure for your child, then I would definitely advise buying one with a lot of articulated points.
Versatility
One benefit to having a single manufacturer for Fortnite toys is that all the toys from the same series can be played with together.
Final Thoughts
Fortnite is one of the most beloved third-person shooter video games that is loved by children of practically all ages. Giving your child Fortnite toys is sure to put a smile on their face and add an extra dimension to their favorite video game.
I hope my article has given you plenty to think about when it comes to gifting your child a Fortnite toy, whether as a birthday present, holiday present, or just a special treat!
If your child is a fan of this wildly popular game, then buying them a Fortnite related toy really shows that you take an interest in their interest, and allows you to better bond with them. What’s better than that?
