AI-powered toys represent the future of play for children. These toys can learn from and speak with children, customize reading and math lessons, and teach coding skills. Smart toys present enormous promise but also pose many potential risks to children if not designed responsibly.

The inaugural Smart Toy Awards held in collaboration with the World Economic Forum aim to shape the future of play and childhood by recognizing innovative, ethical, and responsible AI-powered toys in 8 categories.

During the inaugural Awards Show on May 22, Klaus Schwab, will.i.am, Henrietta Fore, and other judges and special guests spoke about the benefits of these toys but also the importance of developing guidelines for their ethical and responsible design focused on children’s needs.

The Smart Toy Awards recognized winners in 8 categories ranging from Creative Play to Innovation and Smart Companion. The winners of the inaugural Smart Toy Awards came from small companies and start-ups as well as one major global toymaker.

The winners of the inaugural Smart Toy Awards exemplify responsible and ethical child-centric design of AI-powered toys focused on what is best for children and their development. We encourage toy companies to adopt the Smart Toy Awards’ guidelines as they design, develop, and deploy smart toys and AI technology for children and youth. Together, we can ensure a positive and responsible future of play and childhood.

The World Economic Forum is the International Organization for Public-Private Cooperation. The Forum engages the foremost political, business, cultural and other leaders of society to shape global, regional and industry agendas. We believe that progress happens by bringing together people from all walks of life who have the drive and the influence to make positive change.
