COVID-19 Impact Analysis
The economy was severely impacted by the coronavirus outbreak that spread across the world. Lockdowns have been ordered in many nations around the world in an effort to stop the chain and spread of the coronavirus. The supply chains, avenues of distribution, trade, and growth of the building toy business were all severely harmed by this.

With the aid of construction toys, kids may exercise their bodies and minds while also developing their inventiveness and social abilities. Building blocks, model construction vehicles, and city-building toys are just a few of the cutting-edge construction toys that vendors are offering to children.The Growing Use of Social Media Expands the Market Growth
