Toys & More

image We carry one of the largest selections of Melissa $ Doug toys in North Dakota, as well as a great selection of Mudpuppy, Schylling and Haba.

Melissa & Doug specializes in quality wooden toys that encourage creative play. These include a great selection of dollhouses, train sets, puzzles, travel games, soft fill and spills and way too many to list here.

Schylling's specialty is tin toys and classic toys. These include tea sets, tinkertoys, lincoln logs, erector sets and (my favorite and one of our best sellers) Jack in the Boxes. We have a Sock Monkey, Peek a Boo, Teddy Bear and Curious George Jack in the Box. What a great and unique baby gift!

Haba is a high end toy company that is based in Germany and carries a wonderful line of educational games and pattern blocks. Quality plus for a very special gift for a very special occasion.

And finally, our line of Mudpuppy toys include book themed floor and block puzzles, as well as a selection of beautiful locked journals. Themes include "Where the Wild Things Are," "The Very Hungry Caterpillar," "Brown Bear, Brown Bear," and "Goodnight Moon." Pair these wonderful puzzles with a book and you have created a wonderful themed gift that is sure to inspire and delight.

We choose our toys carefully and we add new ones often. If we aren't happy with the quality, appearance or durability of any of our toys we discontinue them as we are always searching for good quality and workmanship at a fair price to our customers.

These toys, we often tell our customers, won't end up in landfills with the broken plastic toys you find elsewhere. And most importantly, many of our toys will end up being used by another generation of children. And we feel that this is important.
