I'm a big kid, so it will come as no surprise that this place is like Disneyland to me-even at 20!…read moreIt's just row after row after row of toys i.e hours of fun! They stock every toy imaginable, from Barbies to Snakes and Ladders to more outdoorsy stuff like bikes and swing sets. And it's absolutely huge, meaning it's so easy to get lost in it-which I'm very grateful for as I don't want my friends to see me drooling over the Lego set that I'm supposedly purchasing for my nephew. My only warning about this place is that if you have small children, it will be very hard to a) Make them leave it and b) Leave empty-handed!

Mind you there are plenty of big kids in this world who just love it too!! It is the most amazing toy store that I have ever seen and being of the mature generation I can honestly say that places like this just didn't exist in my day!! Having said that I sneakily love going into this store as it makes sure that one is kept up to date with all the latest toys and gadgets to suite all ages. The range of outdoor and indoor games is truly fantastic and no wonder it is a child's paradise. All items are reasonably priced and if you can't make up your mind because you are overwhelmed by the choice you can always take the easy option and get a gift voucher and put the stress onto someone else!!

I went in a couple of times to check it out and to see if there was anything I could pick up. Being a bit of a board game nerd I was happy to see their selection and I was pleasantly surprised with what they have to offer. Its located in the Bloomfield Retail Park which means it is close to main roads as well as plenty of other shops. There are always plenty of free parking spaces and there is a bank and ATMS on site which adds to the convenience of shopping here.

How I wish I were a child again (I notice I'm saying that a lot these days) What a magical feeling it must be to climb the stairs of Stewart Miller's and know that you are basically going into Santa's grotto - have you ever seen so many toys shoved and stacked into one top floor - I haven't I can tell ye! Not only is it toy heaven upstairs but downstairs is like a child's dream - sweets, chocolate, crisps and wrapping paper - well, they ahve to stock something for adults! Seriously though, if you need a newspaper, your lotto, a card, a fine nibbed marker in florescent green, a book on horses or a tub of Roses then this is the place for you. Make sure you spend over a fiver if you want to use your debit card though as they won't take it unless you do. Stewart Miller I salute you.

Oh boy, oh boy…read more.. I'm one of these people who always wanted to be artistically creative. My mum can paint, sketch, knit, crochet, and all the rest of it, but unfortunately I didn't inherit her arty farty genes. Stick men and colour co-ordination is really the height of it for me. Well, at least my stick people will be well dressed... Thank goodness for Craftworld, a haven of every possible kind of art form known to man. To my delight, this includes those colourful beads which you place on a random plastic shape, cover with iron-proof paper, and iron. Cue excitement. I actually made one of these a number of years ago. A blue and red place mat in the shape of a star which sits on my desk. Craftworld appreciates the lesser forms of art. Happy days. If you're not one for fusing together beads (and let's face, apart from a five year old and myself, who really is?), do not fear. Everything from dolls houses to thread, from glitter to polystyrene shapes can be found in Craftworld. There's a lovely wee wedding section at the very back too. Lovely jubbly.

This is a huge warehouse filled with toys and games, as well as musical instruments and laptops. Though they have these stores all over England, there is only a few in Northern Ireland, and this is the largest of them. Located in the enormous Sprucefield shopping area, Toys r us is the only toy shop and is a huge favourite with people of all ages. This is a must for anyone who has to get a birthday present for a young one. As with Smyth's toystore, this place is mental at Christmas with every child running round playing and throwing and kicking and poking their parents in order to get that toy that they like that was on the tele once before Batman. Even if you aren't on the lookout for toys, this shop does have some incredibly impressive displays and is well worth a shout.

The Disney Store is a cleverly named shop as it is a huge store that is dedicated to the machine…read morethat they call Disney... Sometimes a name says it all. However in this case, there is more to be said for what some parents would classify as the biggest nightmare on Earth. Disney is aimed solely at children, so why should their shop be any different? Complete with plush toys, Dvds, outfits, towels, and other general tat from all of your favourite movies, this place is painfully busy coming up to Christmas day so Brian's Handy Hint of the Day is AVOID THIS ON FESTIVE OCCASIONS. It's also in the middle of a pretty huge refit so it has been moved two or three units down the street until the refit has been finished. Worryingly, the refit looks like it could be twice the size the shop used to be so if you thought you could distract your children on the way past before, now you are going to have to work harder. I did come in here to buy a present for my girlfriend and after shoving a few unruly little children out of the way, I finally made my way to a checkout where the staff were more interested in the paint on the walls than the fact I was infront of them paying their wages. Perhaps a constant barrage of cheeky children is enough for these members of staff to hate all humanity, but I have found from my job that for every annoying customer, you should chat the nice ones to make up for it. These staff members might not hate life as much if they tried to be a bit more chatty and friendly. The shop is quite expensive (as you would expect with Disney) but when it comes to buying toys, this is as good as you are going to get.

The staff are really friendly and have the shop really tidy which I'm sure can be a difficult task with lots of excited kids running around. Products can be expensive but they are all of very high quality and make great gifts. Definitely worth a dander round every now and again.
