The staff is very friendly as well. As soon as I entered the store, the lady asked me what I wanted to purchase and she was able to lead me to what I wanted. In addition, the prices here are very reasonable. I got five books for $35. If you want to go to a bookstore that is not a chain in Wichita, I would highly recommend this place place!

I feel like I can come in here to browse and truly find some great treasures without being overwhelmed. For example, I came in one day to find the entire Dresden Files series by Jim Butcher. I picked them up for my husband, and he was beyond excited - they were the covers for the first run of the series which, although not "rare" can be a bit hard to get your hands on. I think I paid about $5 per book, and they're in awesome shape. These are the kinds of special finds I love to come across in second hand bookstores :)

I just told them I have two nieces and their ages and the personal attention I received was great. Her suggestions were useful in aiding in my decisions. The selection in toys are what sets them apart from a big chain retail store. They have items that a young kid would get more out of then what you'll find else where. Lots of toys for boys and girls in any age range. Once I got what I wanted I had mentioned these were late Christmas gifts. She insisted that they be wrapped. Wraps them up at no additional charge. The people that own and work there are knowledgeable and friendly. They give you the attention you won't find elsewhere. Highly recommend you check this store out.

A few of my coworkers and I recently attended a Bal-A-Vis-X training workshop. We found the…read moresensory motor components of the exercises very appealing and applicable to use with our psychiatric clients as a way to facilitate sensory integration, socialization, participation and learning. We hope to incorporate basic components and exercises as a preparatory activity for learning in groups we provide. I wanted to bring to attention that we chose to leave the workshop early due to the series of misleading, unethical, and unprofessional comments and approaches that Mr. Hubert was sharing with the group of professionals that were in attendance. We felt uncomfortable with many situations and examples he provided throughout the training in reference to establishing "parameters of behavior". We found many of his suggestions for interacting with students, clients, and persons with specials needs as disrespectful, unsafe, and unethical through our lens of clinical practice, experience, and advanced training in trauma informed care. We did not find his approaches to be congruent with Occupational Therapy's professional standards and code of ethics. What is missing from the Bal-Vis-A-X program is therapeutic use of self, which is a skill that many therapists and educators possess and can be used to enhance the effectiveness of these exercises in any setting. We appreciate Mr. Hubert's skill of observation and experience as an educator, as well as his background in Martial Arts and military service. Though his many years of observation and experience are valuable, his concepts are missing accurate medical terminology and sound theoretical basis. For his audience, who appear to be highly educated and experienced professionals, this does not meet the caliber of best practices. His lack of professional language could be perceived as patronizing and condescending. We respect his work and expertise developing Bal A Vis X and understand the underlying intention. However, we would like to caution to any professionals taking the class against his lack of evidence based language and trauma informed care (i.e. not asking permission to touch or enter another's space, using threatening and authoritative tones with child of special needs or vulnerable adults). There appears to be no reviews for the workshops online besides positive review of the effects of the exercises on his website (which we are not objecting to), and reviews of his books online. Our intent is to filter out the approaches that did not align with our ethics and practice framework, and utilize what we can in our own setting. We hope that this review is taken objectively and with respect for professionalism in PT/OT/Speech, Education, and caregiver roles. We also encourage each attendee to examine acceptable, responsible, safe, and effective ways to establish a therapeutic relationship when providing care for children and adults clients, with or with special needs, in the classroom or therapy session.

Where else are you going to see dinosaurs, mummys, and a handwritten letter by Elizabeth I? I really enjoyed walking around, exploring, and I know my kiddo did as well. It's in an old building downtown and has loads of charm everywhere you look. 4/5 stars because I thought the kids play area was a bit of a letdown - it felt a bit dirty and neglected. There also isn't a cafe, which I think would be a fun addition if they ever plan on expanding or remodeling. The exhibits were wonderful though, and I thought for the price it was a great deal. Overall I'd for sure go back and if you're the kind of person that enjoys something off the beaten path, or has a love for old stories and a solid diorama, this is the place for you.
