History
Established in 2003.
As a mother of 2 young children I was disappointed with the selection of toys available in the major stores. Though not so long ago the internet was not really used to purchase as it is today (hard to remember I know), and I knew there were better toys available. So I decided to start my own shop and focus on finding quality toys with an educational and developmental bias. We have developed and grown over the years and I believe we have the best possible selection of quality toy brands. We do stock some of the popular licenced characters if we believe they offer good value for money. We specialise in wooden toys, educational and developmental toys from birth upwards. Our best sellers include wooden castles, dolls houses, train sets and farms, animal and dinosaur figures, games, jigsaws, play food, dressing up, craft and science kits.
We now have 2 toy shops one in Chapel Allerton and also at 20 Town Street, Horsforth LS18 4RJ.
