OMG, The Baby Shark Toys Coming Out In 2019 Are *So* Ridiculously Adorable

by Caroline Hogeveen

Have you ever heard the song "Baby Shark"? Sorry, a more realistic question: Have you heard the song "Baby Shark" yet this hour? Much like the predator in Jaws, there's no escaping this song. If your own little one can't get enough of the bop, we've got exciting news for both of you. There are Baby Shark toys coming out in 2019, and they'll help your Baby Shark devotee get their fix. Because, you know, 20 listens a day just isn't cutting it.

Anyone with a child in their life has likely heard the Baby Shark song approximately 500 times. Honestly, anyone without a child in their life is still probably averaging around 100. The original YouTube video from Pinkfong, a South Korean educational company, has been viewed 2.3 billion times, and as of right now it holds the 40th spot on Billboard's Hot 100. Seriously? This train isn't slowing down, and that was extremely obvious at the 2019 New York Toy Fair. While these Pinkfong products won't actually hit shelves (or websites) until this coming fall, they'll be out at the perfect time for holiday gifting. Fortunately, I'm pretty sure you'll be able to bide your time with a certain song (doo doo doo doo doo doo).
