    I continue to be so in love with this store. If you're into shops that will have you looking in…read moreevery single corner wanting every single thing, then this is your stop. Tonight I finished my holiday shopping for my niece and picked up a couple of beautiful gifts. The kids section contains high-quality merchandise. My hubby was literally double-parked outside, and I thought I could just run in and out, but no way. I wanted to buy the entire collection! From adorable natural cotton baby clothes to books, to stuffed animals, to toys, you will not leave empty-handed. They have something for every budget, and I think the prices are spot on for the quality. I truly admit to being completely obsessed with an adorable owl stuffed animal. Sooooo cute! Now, the best part about this store? Well, aside from the well-curated merchandise, is the owner. She's a total sweetheart and helped me pick out the perfect gift. She also gift-wrapped it in a super cute burlap bag with my choice of tissue color and a tie. Thank you...thank you. I'm so happy to see that this store is around. I need to stop in more often. Of course, not just for baby gifts, because they have grown-up goodies and cards too. Run, don't walk to this store. You won't be disappointed. Plus, it's super cute inside.

    Baa, Baa Black Sheep. Have you any gifts?…read moreYes, sir, yes, sir One store full; One for a housewarming, And one to celebrate a birthday, And one for the little boy Who lives down the lane. --- Sorry, couldn't help myself. You know you have little ones at home when you pass by a new store and can't get a nursery rhyme out of your head. Yes, there's a new store in Glencoe...whoo hoo! I haven't done much shopping in town since Shirise closed their doors earlier this year (RIP), but it's fabulous to have a store where you can quickly pop in for a housewarming gift or just a little something for visiting a new baby. In the few weeks BlackSheep has been open I've stopped in twice to purchase: a) a lovely candle for the host of dinner during the jewish holidays b) a lovey for a new baby visit (the "real" gift wasn't ready quite yet) And of course I can't forget the few times my pre-schooler has dragged me in there for "just a few pieces of candy." Based on the fabulous candy display they have set up I have a feeling we'll be spending lots of time (and $) at BlackSheep. Welcome to the hood BlackSheep!

    I've lived in the area for ten years and have been to Ellen's many times. This review is based on…read moremy aggregate experiences in the store and with the employees. -Although the merchandise is varied and cute, it's overpriced. I don't want to spend $35+ on a water bottle or keychain with a college logo on it, $40 for a vinyl toiletry bag, or $25 for a dishtowel -I don't think I've ever been greeted when I walk into Ellen's, despite the fact that there are almost always four women standing right behind the counter -Even upon purchasing items at Ellen's the salespeople are aloof and unfriendly -I don't like their return/exchange policy for gifts. They base it on the date the gift was purchased (one month from that date), which has nothing to do when you receive the gift. I asked for a credit on a gift that was given to me recently but they turned me away because of the date of purchase, which was about two months ago. When the saleswoman asked Ellen about it Ellen didn't even turn around to acknowledge my presence, she just shook her head. I found it to be extraordinarly rude. There are plenty of other shops with great customer service, more reasonable prices, and fairer return/exchange policies.

    My kids have a favorite new store in town. I want to avoid it since every visit here ends with my…read morekids on a major sugar high, but have to admit I'm a fan myself. They have every sort of candy to make a kid (or adult) smile...and jewelry too! Candy and jewelry...a store after my own heart. They have all sorts of classes and events happening weekly at Sweet Buddha. Everything from a homework club (genius) to trunk shows to cupcake decorating (yes, more sugar). I've also heard from many friends who were frequent visitors of their old city location that they throw some pretty amazing bday parties! My daughter has already told me (about 1273 times) that she'll be having a future bday party at Sweet Buddha. Sweet Buddha isn't just for kids! When my own summer bday bash on the beach got rained out the owner, Sarah, was nice enough to let us to let us rent the space last minute. It was the perfect venue and I'll definitely look into for all future partying planning in my future (bday parties, moms night outs, baby showers, etc). I'm as thrilled as my little ones to have this in Glencoe and excited to see how this city business adapts to the burbs. I'd love to see some more mommy/caregiver & me classes on the calendar since there's not much for the under 2 crowd in the North Shore. I also think their creative bday party packages are amazing, but the rental fee if you want just the space is a bit high when compared to all the park district rooms nearby (not that the PD rooms are nearly as adorable). Fortunately, the owner is pretty "sweet" herself and I have no doubt will make Sweet Buddha a big success here in Glencoe!

    Simply put. A delightful place to be. Just the spirits in there alone make you feel warm. The…read moreManagment is friendly and the candy is OFF THE HOOK! For a kids party...great choice. The painting was fun, and the added bonus of keeping the kids busy while waiting for the parent to arrive was genius. They have friendly high schoolers working with the kids from local schools! Overall, a fun experience. Next time it's the adults to paint and sip on wine!

    They've got a little something for everyone here…read more... Three years ago I would have been shocked if someone told shopaholic me that I'd enjoy shopping for my kids way more than myself, but it's true. I skipped the cute women's clothing and made my way towards the back of the store to check out the cute little onesies, tutus, etc for my little ones. I just so happened to be here during the Winnetka Sidewalk Sale so I got some fab deals on kicky pants PJs and other cute outfits for my son. I didn't have as much luck for my daughter, but next time we're in need for a tutu we'll be headed here. If you stop in on the 363 days the Winnetka Sidewalk Sale isn't happening it can be a bit pricey, but definitely worth checking out for the kids. And perhaps even yourself.

    What a neighborhood gem! Looking from the outside in, there's no way you would have any idea that…read morethis place meets all of your needs for pretty much everything. A fun top and jeans for yourself, a baby gift and card to match for the little one in your life, a candle for a hostess gift along with a cute sparkly card, some perfume for your sister, earrings for your mom along with a necklace to match, oh and a bracelet for your sister-in-law. Might I add, they have so much more. This is the store for you if you're looking for more of a one-of-a-kind look rather than the, everyone is wearing it vibe. When I walked in I was trying to keep up with my eyes as I was scanning everything as fast as I could but then kept looking back because I didn't want to miss anything. When I stopped in today the owner happened to be in and she was so friendly and kind, I was very impressed. She seems very down to earth and just wants we customers to walk away happy. I'm so glad I found this place. I'll definitely be back.

My son's friend is turning 7 tomorrow. Any good ideas for gifts? Gretchen: Yes! Is this gift for Asher? Their customer service is that good that they know the bday without you even telling them. Minutes later she had sent me suggestions that she thought Asher would, my son chose one (a robotic spider, obviously), I paid by credit card....and the gift was waiting at Asher's door about 30 minutes later. Oh and I even received a text that it had arrived. Based on customer service like this it's easy to see why 98% of gifts at bday parties (way back when we had them) are from Wild Child. Please support this amazing local toy store during this time for your own toy needs...and gifts for others. Thank you Gretchen & co for all that you do!

You were smart enough to have the inventory, yet your pricing was more than competitive with online retailers.

Thanks Gretchen and team.
