I found just that at the locally-owned Playthings Toy Shoppe in the Westport Village! Oh how I love to support locally-owned businesses! I was pleased to browse the aisles and find that they were chock full of unusual, traditional, and more educational toys than I had found in the toy sections of the big box stores where brands like Barbie, Transformers, Paw Patrol and Stars Wars make up the bulk of the offerings. The toys were thoughtfully arranged, as if by age, and employees are ready to help with your selection if need be. Prices were in line with those of online specialty toy stores that sell these types of toys. Free gift wrapping is offered, which is a huge relief for those of us who do not enjoy gift wrapping! I highly recommend visiting Playthings if you are toy shopping. Parking is plentiful at the Westport Village of shops.

And like my other experience, I found this Playthings to be a great locally-owned toy shop. The prices were fair, and it excels at having educational toys and brands you might not find at the big box stores, which I very much appreciated. My son is into dinosaurs for the moment, so I went on Playthings' website and found a great set of dino figures. I was able to buy it online for local pick-up, and the icing on the cake -- I got it wrapped for free. Free wrapping is a service Playthings provides. I also want to commend Playthings on their great customer service. I ordered this right as the ice storm was starting, and they called me to see if I wanted to still pick up that day. The employee I talked to was concerned I would come out when they had closed early. I picked up the toy a couple of days later. Especially if you have kiddos to buy for, don't overlook Playthings.

This comic shop along 6th street was a fun visit for me. I used to be a comic reader/collector…read moreearlier in my life. I had over 12,000 comics at one point but finally gave them up when it was time to downsize our home. So when I entered this shop, there was a bit of nostalgia, especially when I saw the boxes of "vintage" comics sitting on a stand in the middle of the main room. What surprised me was that there were three rooms inside the shop. The comics and graphic novels that lined the shelves were grouped in the rooms by major brand, or children's, or independent offerings. I was the only customer mid afternoon on a Friday, so I was able to discuss the industry and offerings with the man behind the counter. Very friendly gentleman who brought me up to date on the major trends in comics/collecting. For those of you who are comic readers/collectors, know that this shop is devoted to the reading materials, not so much on the collectibles that some of the shops in the Indy area offer. But if you are into reading, I would say this shop has a wide variety on hand and seems like they will work with you to try finding something if they don't. Nice place to browse and hunt for your entertainment reading. Review #3292

They have a huge selection of name brand K-cups in coffee, flavored coffees, cappuccinos, hot chocolates & tea.

They also have a very wide range of toys for half of what I have found the exact same things priced at at other places. I love this store!
