Come here instead of Walmart or Target. Seriously, come in here just ONCE and you will get all your toy gifts from here. It's so good.
This is a high-quality (but NOT super expensive!) toy store that is as delightful to adults as to children. This place doesn't carry much in the way of the traditional huge doll and toy lines or blind bag toys you will find in Target or Walmart. They carry much more interesting stuff. Learning toys and imaginative play toys for all ages are on offer, as well as lovely unique plushies and some vintage-feel/retro toys. There is something for everyone here, from newborns to grandparents (provided they're young at heart!).
The staff is SO enthusiastic about toys, and love to assist everyone regardless of age in finding the perfect gift for others or for yourself. I am delighted by how much they love what they do -- I am an adult collector of modern toys, and it's a little rare to find like-minded people.
I especially want to note their large selection of Calico Critters and Playmobil! Also a lot of unique fidget toys, which is great for those of us who need to swap them...
Read moreGreat place for younger kids (0-10). I always come here to find princess outfits, doll items, and special birthday gifts for friends. They have tons of items setup for your littles to play with while you are looking. Our family absolutely loves this place. It’s a little on the pricey side (10-15% higher than Walmart/target/chains/etc) comparatively, but you will find tons of items you can find anywhere else. They also have tons of smaller items that are good for stocking stuffers for rewarding type gifts!!! I also believe all their items are a better quality to your chain/commercialized stores.
Lots of puzzles, learning based games/toys fun flash cards, legos for all ages and play sets.

Read moreMy wife and I took our nephew here. To be honest, I wasn’t looking forward to it. Toy store memories of my past circle around LOUD, expensive toys, screaming children and exhausted parents. Kiddlestix is not like that. I am sure they get their fair share of kiddo meltdowns, but the toys offered (at least many of them) are in some way educational, thoughtful and well-made. My wife and I kept saying how cool each toy was as often as our nephew. The store’s exterior is unprepossessing, but don’t let that turn you away. I see myself coming back here with my own kid one day. Definitely worth the time to stop in and support this thoughtful...
