- Shopping Online vs In Person -
While we welcome you to shop with us online, it's only a small fraction of what we carry. Many of our most beloved brands (like Jellycat and Maileg), as well as the newest things that we find at the latest toy and gift shows are only available in store.
But the best reason to shop in person is you'll have a chance to really pick our brains about what we think of each toy, game, and book on our shelves. We carefully select everything brought into our stores, and we're happy to find the perfect gift for you.

At Child's Play, We Believe:
In a child-centered approach to learning and play, in nurturing a child’s natural curiosity and imagination, and in embracing each unique and wonderful child.

A Balanced Toy Diet
The right toys help children develop their brains, their muscles and their gifts. Our incredible staff can recommend thoughtful toys & books that are right for your child.
