Inside, however the place is kind of magical. The first thing you see when you enter is a large display of toys made from recycled plastic, complete with dirt and tools.

Just when you think you're done, there's a large circular staircase down to another level, where the toys for older children are located. One of the best things is how "hands on "kid friendly it is; it's a total no judgment zone! Tons of sample toys have been laid out for kids to actually play with! The next great things are the prices! Very fair and reasonable - not boutique prices like you might think! Great place to pick up a gift for a kid you love!

I was looking for a specific toy so went on their website to look at the virtual tour and it showed they had it so I drove there to buy it, but couldn't find it. When I asked they said it was outdated. It would be super helpful to let people know the virtual tour online is indeed outdated to save people the trip. Overall a good store for a variety of toys, but the website does need an update.
