A very nice, well-organized toy store in the marina. Great for toys for the 4+ crowd especially. Sure you can find things cheaper at the BIG stores, online, Amazon, etc- but the prices are not 'unreasonable' and the selection is adequate- especially when you need some on short notice - or if you have planned poorly ;-)
Parking is relatively easy, the staff were friendly enough and did a nice gift-wrapping job for me as well. I will return, and usually this is my first-stop for 'general' toy gift-shopping in my general area (translation- when I need to buy a gift but I have no idea what I am looking for!). -

This is a modest place, but they make the best use of the space by not filling it with too much plastic crap. There are many interesting and creative-inspiring toys to be found.

great store with wonderful toys! but the staff did not bother to acknowledge us when we can in. then when I asked for help I was just pointed to a wall filled with choices. I ASKED FOR HELP, not for you to keep talking about your date to your coworker! such a great store but the owner should know if I had been helped I would have spent more. very sad

A Child's Delight is a great place to shop if you believe that play should be rooted largely in a child's imagination, with just a little help from time honored, simple, well crafted props and toys and games.
It is a small store, but if you want to spark creative thinking and fun, they have everything you need. Including Ravensburger jigsaw puzzles, the best! -

Probably the best toy store I've every been in. The staff is very up to speed on 'age appropriate' toys for kids of all ages. I have never been disappointed for birthday gifts, Christmas, and other special occasions. It is well stocked with the very latest 'must have' items. I find it hard to limit myself.

A cute little toystore in the Marina District.
The two people staffing were helpful, nice and the store itself was pretty neat. There was a fairy section with books and costumes, which had I been 15 years younger I woulda gone nuts over. As it was I almost bought the glow in the dark planet set (that can possibly be made into a necklace) in the glow in the dark section but decided for something I was going to wear once it was a mite expensive.
The only negative I saw was the music. The 5-year-old build-a-bear, it's-a-small-world-after-all, music that would make a sane man crazy. Props to the two staffers for putting up with it.
5 stars for making me wish I was ten.Listed in: SF Toy Shops

I like this toy shop so much and I'm so happy they opened in SF!
I'm quite picky about what my child should get as toys. They need to be fun, educational, sturdy and promote imaginary play. Such toys are very difficult to find. I find exactly that kind of toys at a Child's Delight, and the adorable team is always enthusiastic, polite and helpful.
I came to this shop numerous time since my last review. I even bugged them on the phone because I wanted a yellow and green front end loader truck : they had one- they put it on hold for me.
There was also that time when I needed toys that are playable on a restaurant table : they found tons of ideas. Now Sunday brunches are enjoyable for le bebe and moi.
And this other time when I needed a toy for a chic little girl? Got it.
When it was overwhelming to find the right tricycle, they helped too. I looked for hours on the Internet and they found what I needed in 5 seconds, already mounted by a professional, safe, the right size, and ready to play. I didn't think it was possible.
It's an exceptional place and I really enjoy it! Thank you !1 Previous Review: Show all »

This store is genuine in its provisions for CHILDREN,unlike other places that look to sell expensive developmentally questionable items to the yuppie parents.The classic stuff is here,like Jacks,marbles,temp. tattoos,along with cool stuff like Bionicles,etc.In addition,the prices here are some of the lowest I've seen.Go to this one.

This is the best toy store in the area! I absolutely love their toys! I am a Speech Therapist and this is where I get most of my toys to promote speech and language development. They sell educational and fun toys for all kids. :)

I went here for the first time a couple of weeks ago. It has a great selection of kids' stuff. I definitely know where to go next time I'm shopping for my niece or nephew. It was fun just roaming around and seeing all the great stuff they have.
