I love this store! It's so nice to have a kids "toy" store, and I say that loosely because it's so much more than just toys, hence the quotation marks, that's focus is on items for kids that are more than just purely entertainment or brain-numbing distractions. Their toys are fun, but they promote thinking and learning and interaction. They carry quality wooden toys, like Melissa and Doug, that makes kids use their imagination and their fingers, not batteries, to play. They have a lot of science and engineering stemmed toys that make those subjects fun and interesting. They carry a nice selection of read aloud books, traditional paper page and board books. So much for imaginative play! They have a cool section for crafts, like cute little planters and jewelry making kits. I bought a gift for a 7 years old little girl of a good friend of mine that was an adorable little pot you can decorate and plant flowers I in that they include to make a fairy garden. Another time, a face/body painting kit that was a huge hit. Traditional toys like cars and trains, of course. Some of my son's favorite toys with wheels are from here. Toys made from recycled products. You can personalize toy plastic toy storage and trays for kids. You can also register for birthdays here, and they gift wrap for free. It's a small store, so it can feel like they don't have a lot for some ages or sections, but you can find some really good things in for all ages. I do a lot of shopping here for gifts, and for my son. They also have a lot of toys setup, so it can both entertain your kids while you're shopping and let you see something before you buy it. Not everything, but some. Sign up for their mailing lists, they'll send out periodic catalogs with...
Read moreHorrific experience- zero 6ft spacing for covid-19. Went in to find a toy for my gifted 2.5 year old. They had zero action figures (I guess those aren't educational enough) bought a mini arcade game that works with 2AA batteries. Took it home and he didn't like it- I didn't either as the screen was hard for me to see---- let alone my child. The receipt says nothing about their refund or return policy. I was in the store for twenty minutes and saw zero sign. My fiance tried returning it with my son on their way to get the toy he wanted. He was told he couldn't because the pick of package was slightly torn. When I called, I got the same response.. It's not that hard to put your lack of return policy on the receipt or in clear veiw. I've never had this happen at any...
Read moreWe visited the store last week on our way through town and were so impressed. I didn’t catch the sweet employee’s name that helped us, she had on a Whataburger mask (we love those burgers). She was so patient and took each of my kids around the store to show them toys that were perfect for the different ages. She then showed amazing skills in an extremely busy store as all three children paid separately for their toys. She encouraged each child to put away their change before stepping away from the register. After the last transaction, she thanked us for stopping in and wished us safe travels back home to Michigan. It was really the highlight of our spring break trip! Thank you for a...
