Blue Bunny Books is easily one of my favorite locations to walk to and hang out. During my…read morepregnancy, I have found myself walking into town just to be able to sit and do some work while sipping on a yummy drink. Their cafe isn't just creative, it's extensive! They really have something for everyone here. My boyfriend, who is more of a tea than a coffee person, hasn't found any complaints when trying their drinks (and he may be as much of a drink critic as I am). If you have kids, Blue Bunny also does creative and fun events to engage and involve your little ones in some much-needed book-themed fun. With our family expecting our first baby, we're beyond thrilled to bring her over to Blue Bunny's events, no matter how old she is. Blue Bunny is such a staple to the Dedham community, and I will always enjoy going back for some yummy coffees and good books.

What a cute little bookshop with cafe! We stopped in just to check out the selection but I was…read moredrawn in by its small chop charm. My son and I grabbed some drinks from the cafe and they were delicious, then as we waited browsed their selection. There are more children's books overall but they do carry toys, trinkets, cards, crafts, historical books and more. The woman working the front was super sweet and the lady behind the cafe counter was too, their service was welcoming. As far as value I'd rather support local than the big store. Their prices are the norm but yes you can find majority of these books at big retailers for less. They both also gave a military discount even though I don't believe that is the norm for them but much appreciated. Overall great experience.

I empathize with how hard it must be to run a physical toy store in the age of instant delivery to…read moreyour door. So I took my six year old here for that old Toy Store magic. Didn't really deliver. Lego with all sorts of cobranded Disney movies but no just... Lego. A staff that wasn't very helpful in knowing whether a game was a deck building game or strategy game. Those old school little balsa wood planes? Drones I seem to see everywhere? Nah, none of that. Oh well, just hard to really do physical retail when literally every thing and every piece of information is in a browser. They came up in conversation as having some sort of Pokemon night. Sounds neat so I checked the web site. There's literally no information. So I called the store. And got a recording or phone tree or something that's not very helpful. Not really looking for cobranded marketing doofers. Not really looking for "STEM" lazily slapped onto schlock.

I was very disappointed with my experience. The payout offered for gently used items was so low…read morethat it honestly wasn't worth the time or effort to bring everything in. Stores that buy used items like this just aren't worth it if you're hoping to get a reasonable return. For example, if you paid around $300 for a bassinet that's still in excellent condition, you may only be offered around $20 for it. The store may then resell it for $50 to $75. While I understand these businesses need to make a profit, the amount offered to sellers felt far too low to make it worthwhile. In my opinion, you're better off selling your items yourself through a local marketplace or giving them to a family in need. At least that way you'll either receive a fairer price or know your items are helping someone else. Unfortunately, I won't be selling here again.

If you're a teacher, you likely already know about this place and have been here numerous times. I…read morereally like this place, even though I have no children and teach college students. I tend to shop here for educational items for relatives and friends' children. The staff is very friendly and patient, even when you have no idea what you are looking for. The store is well lit and well organized, so you know relatively quickly whether the item is available. The have undoubtedly the best selection of educational materials for all ages of any store around. That said, they are rather pricey and it is easy to blow through whatever budget you may have had walking in. I would suggest shopping here last, as many things can be found at Target, Amazon, and other outlets. If there is something in particular, especially harder to find educational aids, then this is your place. Just prepare to spend accordingly.

I don't call it a complete waste of time because I was inspired by the products they do hold to create my own. Needless to say I did not purchase much more than poster items, which later I found Staples had a much better price. One thing I will say was that the staff was very friendly and knowledgeable of their products.

Another amazing store in Newton Centre. Besides the place…read moreon Lincoln St, this is the only place to buy toys in Newton. Yes, it's small. Yes, it doesn't have as much as Toys R Us. and Yes, it's a bit more expensive than Toys R Us or Walmart. But Yes, you're supporting a local business by shopping here. And Yes, the service is much better, than normal customer service at a "big box" like Toys R Us or Walmart. They also wrap, which I find extremely convenient, and have some great options for gifts that Toys R Us doesn't. They have a ton of art supplies, mostly Alex & Faber Castel, as well as some Crayola, all not overpriced and cool. As well as lots of board games, and lots of puzzles and small trinkets (they had a whole unit filled with small compartments for cool little things). Even though it's small, so much to choose from and so many options. The staff were also helpful and useful with finding products I was looking for and I found a perfect alternative to an item they didn't have. Superior service, that wasn't at a Bloomingdale's price. Perfect. Will need to visit here more often for gifts. Just like basically everywhere in Newton Centre, everywhere here are all just great places to shop! This store is in Newton Centre, but not directly in the heart of it, and not near as much of the traffic (which is really nice). It's on Centre Street at the junction of Cypress Street. There is a front entrance on Centre and a back entrance with a large parking lot. There is another parking lot for it as well off to the side, which you do have to pay for a meter. Definitely stop by for any gifts or toys you may be needing. This is a great spot. 5 stars.

There are also several handicapped spots on Moody Street. Shop is handicapped accessible, though it is a pinch cramped in the back. I've been able to maneuver with a rollator and cane. If you need help navigating or reaching anything, the owner is happy to help.
