Luckily, the best toy buying years are ahead of him, so I can still do my part in keeping this independent toy store afloat. It is fun just to browse here. And, they gift wrap!

Lakeshore Learning completely blew my teacher mind. There are dozens of items here that I always…read moreknew I needed, but had no idea where to find... I just had absolutely no idea that a store like this existed until now. Firstly, it is useful to note that I work for a somewhat underresourced after school program through a nonprofit agency. It can be time-consuming to find activities that are engaging and learning-based. However, I did have a bit of funds to spend down from a grant, and wanted to use them wisely. Generally, I have looked for good learning materials at places like Target and Office Max, but the selection was never quite what I needed. After hearing about Lakeshore Learning as an option to find learning materials, I popped on their website and started filling up my cart, but was dismayed when I got to the checkout and found that my shipping cost was going to be a whopping $150! (Lakeshore uses percentage based shipping cost). I wasn't about to be blowing what little funds I had to spend on shipping, so I decided to visit their brick and mortar location in Beachwood. When I pulled in the lot, I found myself wondering why I had never noticed this little store before, despite the fact that I had driven past this area dozens of times. Then I poked my head in the store, and instantly experienced that vortex effect any woman with a free afternoon and a Target Red Card has the moment she locks eyes with that giant red bullseye. Fortunately, I came prepared with a list. The store wasn't incredibly big, and things were decently well labeled in terms of math games, literacy games, classroom supplies, etc. However, I wasn't able to find absolutely everything on my list, and didn't want to leave without the items. I found a woman who was bopping around the store assisting customers with their Christmas shopping and asked if she could assist. Although they were very busy and I had a very loooong list, she quickly started running around the store grabbing the things I couldn't find in a friendly manner. I found out later that she is the the store manager, Christina. When she noted that there were some items they just didn't carry, she generously offered to help me place an order at the front desk and have them shipped to me at no cost. Such service! As I said, they were incredibly busy for the holiday season, but even when I got to the front, the woman checking me out was so sweet and friendly, she helped me sign up for a rewards card, bagged my items carefully, gave me information on how to get my tax exemption, and even helped me get some sweet discount coupons! I couldn't believe how pleasant this shopping experience was, and I have to say that I am going to start recommending Lakeshore Learning as both a resource for other educators, but also for toy shopping! I loved their selection of learning materials, and I think they also had some really unique STEM items that would make fun Christmas gifts. Knowing that I can get a great selection of these items AND great customer service makes Lakeshore Learning my new classroom supply destination!

You might find a few family games but there's plenty of gag gifts for everyone and very small gifts like little balloon dogs, kazoos, harmonicas, whoopie cushions for everyone to enjoy.

We don't have any kids in our lives we were shopping for, yet still were entranced with how much fun we had! You can find nearly anything in this beautifully curated store. We found ourselves spending a lot of time browsing the adult-friendly puzzles and proclaiming that we wanted to complete 100 different ones. You could easily find a beautiful gift in here for a child or adult alike and I felt inspired for future Christmas gifts. Other standout areas included the kitschy toys meant to make you giggle, and the large selection of fun stuffed animals. I am still actively thinking about the absolutely adorable dog in a space suit and regretting not buying it for myself. The store is very well-organized and the staff are excited to chat with you. Truly a gem of Downtown Chagrin Falls!

I also absolutely loved their collection of plush toys. There were typical stuffed animals, mythical creatures, food, viruses and they ranged in prices and sizes. Most were items I haven't seen in other stores and there was even a really cute and high end Axolotl weighted toy that caught my eye! They also had puzzles, board games, dice, marbles, pop culture/ fandom merchandise (like Grogu, Star Wars, and Studio Ghibli items) and they had some fun candies and drinks too! If you're looking for gifts this is a great spot to check out!
