Editorial Review for Top Ten Toys – by Barbara Riegel

In Short
Hand painted recycled cardboard signs hang over well-stocked aisles, making toys and games easy to find. Therapist Adelia Rickert wanted healthier choices for children and founded the shop in 1988, which is now run by her brother, Allen, who neatly sums up their vision, "We're multi-cultural, feminist and low on electronics." For a varied ethnic selection, don't miss the life-size infant dolls and the beanbag cuddly babies in bright jumpsuits and caps.

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Simply the best toy store I have ever been to. My boy loves just going there to hang out even if we don't buy anything. Great selection of good quality toys from all over the world. Also the place is low on the sort of high sheen, overly marketed, pieces of plastic that dominate the bigger chain stores.

Pros: extremely diverse selection, good quality toys.

Cons: ???

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

At 27 years of age, I think that I enjoy this store more than any kid!

Pros: plenty of parking, not crowded, reasonably priced

Editor's Review

A rambling, homespun store with a non-violent philosophy that carries mostly kid-powered toys.  See the full editorial review.
