As holiday shopping season kicks into high gear, here are 10 toys you'll want to have on your radar before they're gone.
FAO Schwarz Giant Dance Mat Piano
The FAO Schwarz floor piano is 101 inches long and has 24 oversized keys kids can play with their feet. It includes five built-in songs, plus adjustable volume and a record function that stores up to 37 notes. When kids are done playing, the mat folds up for easier storage.
FAO Schwarz Galaxy Glow Space Blocks, 37-Piece Construction Building Set
This set comes with 37 colorful pieces for making rockets, robots, satellites and other space-themed creations. Some of the blocks even glow in the dark, and the interchangeable shapes are made to stack and rebuild over and over.
FAO Schwarz Rescue Responders 2-in-1 Wooden Fire Station Playset
This wooden fire truck opens up into a three-story fire station. The 21-piece set includes three vehicles, plus a whole crew of firefighters, working gears and a surrounding street to play on. When playtime is over, everything stores inside and folds closed for easy organization.
FAO Schwarz Mess-Free Glow Palette, Musical LED Art Pad for Kids
Love finger painting but hate the mess? This light-up art pad responds to touch so it mimics finger painting, but is totally mess-free. It includes 12 glowing colors and kids can draw along with six built-in songs and erase the screen to start over with the push of a button.
FAO Schwarz Electronic Tag Set
This electronic tag set comes with two vests and two blasters for playing laser tag at home. You can play outside, or set up your own obstacle course inside to play in. The set requires two AA and two AAA batteries (not included).
FAO Schwarz Monster Dragster RC Stunt Car
