I love this place.

The staff knows about every single product on their shelves, how it works, what age it's good for, and they'll gift wrap it (free, and cute !) for you in record time. They can assemble a Kettler trike, find you the Thomas the Tank Engine set your kid is dying to get, and will even special order Hello Kitty tschotkies for you.

Excellent selection of board games, art projects, and science projects, all at reasonable prices (approximately $12-$25 for a gift). You can find anything for a kid here; Six-year-old boy ? Stomp Rockets. Ten-year-old-girl ? Klutz books, and tons of them. Baby shower ? Tons of cute accessories, mobiles, and even some things for mom. It's also a great place to get stocking stuffers and gift bag goodies.

This is the perfect birthday party gift-on-the-go spot.  You can pop in here quickly, choose from a good selection of interesting toys, grab a card and have your gift wrapped - at no charge and be out the door in 15 minutes (or less if you really push it).  The staff is very helpful with selections at every age level.  If you're lucky, the kid you're shopping for has put together a bin full of the stuff he or she wants and you can skip the browsing and wondering if your choice is the right choice.  They also have an excellent return policy, should the recipient decide they'd prefer something else.

They have extensive collections of Playmobil and Thomas the Tank.  They also have a wide selection of art project gifts, baby and toddler toys, Kettler trikes, boxed science project toys, outdoor play stuff, etc.  My kids love to play with the toys they have out at the back of the store, including the Thomas table.

I have always been happy with the customer service here.  They did a nice - and quick - job putting a trike together for me.  And, they have a customer rewards card, that will add up quickly with all the birthday parties kids have these days.

What an awesome toy store.  They have lots of toys out on display to look at.  The staff is very friendly.  They have unique toys here you won't find at the mainstream places.  Your child won't want to leave!
