Fantastic! Stopped on our way home to Indiana. A kids' and adults' paradise. I got help finding a…read moregift for my granddaughter. It was a perfect choice too! This place does not have an online business (a good thing imo). Huge. Three levels. Started in 1955. Lots of history here as well. Fair pricing and an amazing selection of toys. I want to be a kid again. I was attracted to classic games and toys like baby dolls, Racko, etc. Think Tinker Toys and Lincoln Logs. We'll come back, as this is one of our regular trips to MD. There are three floors!

This place is talked about in this area on the regular. It is a fabled place to stop and browse the…read moretoys. A true toy store when other's just offer toy departments. A lot of people will describe this place as a UFO, I want to disagree here with that. It's more along the lines of a military fighter plane. That's not an arrow on their sign, that's the plane. I do see how people say UFO, looking like it's out of 'Flight of the Navigator' and all. When you finally pull in and park you are immediately greeted with toys. Out front of the store they have a few outdoor games set up for use. This theme continues inside and you find out why once you enter. Upon entry to the store you are told by the employees (mostly high schoolers or college kids) that you are welcomed to play with anything that is already opened. There are a lot of things opened, so you could honestly spend your whole day here discovering the toys. I was under the assumption when I arrived here that this place held old school or vintage toys. That is my fault, I thought that this was a throwback store, but by visiting here I now know differently. There are toys in here that are nostalgia inducing, but a lot of what you see is cutting edge and up to date toys. Every single type of toy you can imagine is available. Puzzles, boardgames, sports equipment and much more can be found in here. I had high hopes at finding something for upcoming birthdays, but actually ended up getting myself a boardgame and a magnet to add to my collection. Was it worth the stop, yes. Is it worth all the hype and a trip out of your way, not really.

What an incredible toy store. I recently visited and had no idea what to expect as I drove on the…read morehighway and saw this massive building out of nowhere. Is it a spaceship? Or a B52 Bomber? Or a bomb shelter? I'm not sure I ever figured that out. But inside, it's a kids dream. My twins ran all over, played make believe and rode tricycles through the aisles. The service was friendly and so helpful. All of the staff went out of their way to show off the toys and give suggestions on what would work best for my kids. The value here is also great. The kids managed to twist my arm and after I said they could get just one toy, they managed to convince me to get a bunch for each of them. Am I a complete pushover parent? You better believe it! Overall, this is a place you must visit if you're in this part of Pennsylvania with kids. It was a major highlight of our road trip.
