(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) Dublin, March 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "China Toys market Size and Share Analysis - Growth Trends and Forecast Report 2025-2033" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The Chinese toys market is likely to grow substantially, reaching US$ 52.19 billion by 2033 from US$ 30.68 billion in 2024, with a CAGR of 6.08% between 2025 and 2033

Factors driving this growth include increasing disposable incomes, the growing demand for educational and interactive toys, and innovations in product designs. The expanding e-commerce sector and changing consumer preferences for sustainable products also contribute to the market's expansion.
The development of toys as an integral part of childhood development in China has been driven by increasing disposable incomes and changes in lifestyles. The increasing middle class, along with an emphasis on education, has resulted in a need for educational and interactive toys that facilitate learning and skill-building. In addition, the popularity of international toy brands and the development of innovative, technology-driven products such as robots and smart toys have also driven market growth. E-commerce platforms also play a significant role in the availability and accessibility of toys, making them more popular across urban and rural regions in China.
Growth Driver in the China Toys Market

Rising Disposable Incomes and Changing Lifestyles
China's expanding middle class and increasing disposable incomes are key growth drivers for the toy market. Parents tend to spend more and buy better quality, educational, and interactive toys for children. In addition, changing family ecosystems through increasing urbanization and lifestyles have been working in the direction of a more conscious valuation of the development and entertainment of children.

Since parents are looking for a toy that is meant to create fun and learnability, the demand for toys that can develop cognitive skills and creativity has seen a significant rise, driving growth in the market. In March 2024, China's middle class is expanding and disposable incomes are increasing. In the year 2023, the per capita disposable income in China was 39,218 yuan, bringing a nominal increase of 6.3% compared to 2022.
Shift Towards Educational and Interactive Toys
Demand for educational and interactive toys in China is rising as the country focuses on early childhood education and learning. Parents are more likely to purchase toys that enhance mental and physical development. Learning toys that merge play with education, like STEM toys, puzzles, and smart toys, are in high demand. This is further enhanced by government initiatives in educational products, which has further expanded the market. Parents have become more discriminative in selecting toys that support the intellectual development of their children.
The growing e-commerce industry and online shopping
There is easy availability of toys offered by international as well as domestic brands at cheap rates on online portals. The online shopping facility saves time and makes it possible for customers to see reviews from fellow customers, leading to increased reliance on e-commerce. E-commerce portals provide targeted advertising and personalized recommendations, which can help parents locate and buy their favorite toys. It has opened up the toy market to urban as well as rural consumers. China has 64% of all e-commerce transactions being completed through mobile devices. Of these mobile transactions, 65% are completed through an application. Digital wallets account for 59% of all completed transactions in the country.
Challenges in the China Toys Market

Intense Competition and Price Sensitivity
The Chinese toy market is highly competitive because of both domestic and international brands. Even though global brands are well established, local manufacturers often sell their toys at relatively cheaper prices. This makes it difficult for premium brands to retain their market share. Furthermore, Chinese consumers have become more price-sensitive, particularly in lower-tier cities, where affordability is the main factor for purchasing decisions. This price competition compels manufacturers to maintain quality and at the same time lower the cost to be able to differentiate their products in an overpopulated market.
Stringent Regulations and Safety Standards
The Chinese toy industry operates under very tight product safety and quality regulations. This can be very costly and time-consuming for the manufacturers as compliance with such regulations, which range from hazardous materials, age appropriate content, to quality control. This regulatory burden is a significant challenge for small and medium-sized businesses. Moreover, consumers' safety concerns and the rising awareness of international safety standards necessitate higher quality, which pressures manufacturers to ensure their products meet both domestic and international expectations.
