The Geniune Toy Company. It’s name says it all. It is genuine! That’s for sure. It is a wonderful toy company. I was glad to see such a wide variety of toys arranged in the shop. Staff and management are engaged at many different levels. They were approachable and offered information freely. The location is excellent. I had an easy time parking, though, it can be a bit cramped when the whole street that the Genuine Toy Company is on is busy. There is plenty of parking in the surrounding area, so, not to worry. The building that the Genuine Toy Company in is quaint and easy to walk around in. There are handicapped entrances. The aisles in the store are wide and accommodate all sorts of traffic including baby carriages and wheelchairs. As for their toy selection – top rate! First flight! The best. Prices are reasonable too. Whether you are seeking a traditional toy or a modern toy this store has a great number of choices. The rooms are festively and interestingly decorated. My favorite part was finding harmonicas and tops I had been looking for – finally! Lots of items and notions for parties as well. Their doll selection and dinosaur collections are enjoyable.

And I’m so thankful they require masks for the safety of their staff and guests. We love...
Read moreThis is my go-to store for toys and games for our family or for gift-giving (they are always available to advise on gifts!). They offer board games (new and on consignment), educational and creative items (from stones/minerals to soap- and jewelry-making) and toys that will engage kids like butterfly nets and hula hoops as well as modern faves like Aaron's thinking putty. They also have adorable classics for babies and plush animals. If you're looking for something in particular they may even be able to order it in for you. Lastly, I enjoy how much the proprietors foster a sense of community in the town, too. Definitely worth checking out and you get to feel good about...
