I find the shop cramped and difficult to manourvre a push chair round but that's because they have so many toys. I like the fact you can visit for party bag items and know that you will be able to find things you want. Recently we were looking for a matching game for my daughter and this toy shop had loads where as the larger shops in town such as Wolworths as was didn;t have half the choice. Their prices are very reasonable and I will always make this toy shop my first choice.

This is a pretty big store, full of toys!…read more Pretty much everything a child could wish for, I guess. And lots more. I've only come here a few times because I found that I could get the same thing for less else where. The staff seem more interested in conversing with each other, which was another deterrent. But if you can't find what you want, it's bound to be here.

Toys r us is one of the biggest toy shops around selling everything for children you can think of…read more This store has a large car park and easy access. Inside the toys are separated out into sections for easy navigation although if you are lost don't hesitate to ask someone everyone is very helpful. Prices are normally around the RRP so average really but with a lot of choice it is easy to buy all you need in one place Be prepared for it to get busy near Christmas though.

The early learning centre is stashed away behind the lift and escalators in the main area of the…read moreDolphin shopping centre. Early learning stocks children's toys and activities and is one of the first places you should look if you are looking for inspiration on gifts. They have many ideas and plenty of arts and crafts as well as toys and games. They also stock garden toys as well. I have always found the staff to be extremely helpful but if you have young children be prepared for it to take you extra long while in the shop as the little ones try out all the toys. Plenty of parking like the rest of the Dolphin centre and public transport on hand.

I will happily look round this shop when its just me on my own, but when I have my children its a…read moreshop I walk by very quickly, because if I let my children in there I will never get them out. Its a lovely shop for toys and learning toys for children as well as out door toys can also be found in this shop. they also offer a catalogue which you can browse at home and order online and get the items delivered to you..

A few times I've gone in, eyes peeled so to speak, and gone up and down aisles, and when I ask, the thing is right at the entrance but so high up, no one sees it. My daughter went to the Science /Museum and bought a fun item, but somehow, the next morning it was wrecked. Apparently, It was 'I don't know', 'Nobody' or 'It wasn't me' - my three invisible lodgers. I felt sorry for her and decided to replace it, knowing I'd seen it in Poole. Well, I went every where, and in the end tried Toymaster, They were very kind, and it ended up being high up near the door. But it was ugly! My daughter's was cute! They were very understanding and directed me elsewhere - and I got one! I do like a store that will direct you somewhere else. You feel they want to help you.

Its good if you know its there, I dont think it gets the attention it derserves because its just…read moretucked out of the way too much from the hussle of passers by. I went in and yes it had loads of toys but was scarse of children and was generally very quite which I felt was sad, considering its in the middle of Poole. I may have gone at a wierd time but I am never drawn to it naturally and I go to Poole alot, hense why I have only been in there once, maybe that could be a problem for others too?

I am forever going into Martins because the post office is housed in here. Over the months I have…read morefound that the amount of stock in the shop has increased a lot and there is more and more floor space being used to house this stock. This results in thinner walking areas and when I take a pushchair into the shop I can often get stuck. The shop used to sell papers and sweets etc but now there is a mass of toys, cards, balloons, homewares and anything else I think they might think of to chuck on a shelf. The prices are reasonable compared to other shops but I think they are losing their direction and trying to sell anything and everything, making this particular shop look more like a car boot sale.
