A fun decor feature is their display of completed Playmobil sets on shelves around the perimeter of the north side of the store -- some of the sets our own grown offspring had as children. We found a few treasures to purchase, including a fun looking 1000 piece puzzle. The store staff were cordial and helpful, even if they were not going out of their way to greet everyone who came through the doors. One big plus for us, after walking around downtown Corvallis for a few hours, is they have public restrooms available! You have to ask for a key at the checkout counter, but the restrooms are very clean and well maintained; and for those with very small children, there are full-sized changing tables. We often find ourselves being sort of "restroom snobs" when it comes to shops and restaurants; but we find the condition of the bathroom is often an accurate indicator of the rest of the facility. Anyway, The Toy Factory is a wonderful little shop, and I highly recommend it.

I just went there again this morning looking for Sea Monkey (Krill) aquariums for the kids and they had three different types! I couldn't find them anywhere else in town except BiMart, which only had 1 type. The price was essentially the same as BiMart, with a much better selection. Given the choice to spend my money at a small locally owned business, I'll choose the small business every time.

Everyone is friendly and how cool is it to visit a farmers market right off highway 101?! We stopped by around 2pm and it was fairly busy, but not too crowded, though it was an hour or so before the end. We saw cool geodes, foraged mushrooms, a cute lil' bakery, a produce seller with fresh strawberries and peaches, creative art prints, and a vegan food truck among other vendors. It takes place on Sundays and if you are spending some time on the beach, you might as well see what treasures you can procure at the farmer's market, too!
