There's always something a little different and while many of the toys are on the pricier end, there are some great gifts for under $10 that kids around the 5-year-old mark absolutely love. The one disappointment for me was they never seem to have any sales. Maybe that was their point of different, but I try and stock up at toy sales for the dozens of birthday parties we go to each year. Recently, they have started offering Lego at 15-20% off. It's a start and may be a sign of things to come. If you want a toy that will impress, go to here and make the most of attentive and knowledgable staff that will show you many options. You can't get that at Kmart.

Carrying the finest and high quality children's and baby's clothing, furniture, toys and gifts, this is a perfect place to start if you're thinking of giving your child a personalised themed bedroom. A room mirroring his personality and identity. If budget permits, you'll have plenty of deco theme options to choose from, to pair to your child's bedroom. From wall stickers which allows creativity and wallplay, my favourite picks would have to be the racing car tracks, princess and the adorable chalkboard which promises hours of fun for the kids. I went hunting for bean bags and came across some pretty ones. Unfortunately they had the name 'couture' on it and came with a price tag of $99. As gorgeous as it was, I doubt I'll be spending that much on a mere bean bag. Expect to pay a bit more here as you are paying for good quality products. Not your average 'Made in China' store, Kidzone appeals to all. My all time favourite would have to be Djeco, a French educational brand. Djeco carries beautiful range of stickers, magnetic puzzles, collages and more..they are a favourite amongst my kids and absolutely affordable. Kidzone truly meets the needs of children and covers playtime, educational, fashion, bedding, personalised products and party essentials.

There is plenty options for every decorating concept you can imagine and they cater for everything - furniture, decor, wall decals, unique clothes and quality toys. I picked up a quality raw single bed with a bookcase head for a little under $250. A lick of paint and it looked great! If you're less price conscious, they have beautiful white two-pac beds. It is a large space that is packed to the brim, so if you're looking for something specific, it's worth asking for help.

It's one of my regular toy store when I shop for birthdays, Christmas or the occasional treats I throw in for my kids, when they excel in their school work. The staff are absolutely friendly and seems to know their products very well. They get bonus points from me for carrying international brands from UK, US and Europe. Fans of Melissa & Doug and Djeco products would love it here, I know I do. They have nine stores across Adelaide, check their website for location details.

I remember the 'educational toys' from my childhood, many years ago. I considered them to be maybe…read moreone step above being given socks when my birthday or Christmas came around. I hated them with a passion, they were always lame and lacked in imagination and fun. Well, it looks like educational toys have come a long way since then. There's some genuinely cool stuff in here. The big kid in me could have spent a good hour or two looking at all the cool stuff, but I was being rushed by my better half, so I grabbed the coolest thing I could find in my price range and bought it for my nephew, who's not even one year old yet. This shop is really good if you've got young children and you're trying to find good and at the same time, educational (the two seem to rarely coincide in the way that the makers intend - the important ingredient will always be the child's imagination and they way they use what you've bought them), then this shop is great. The staff are really helpful and lovely. I'll be back again for sure.

If it were still socially acceptable for me to break out the lego whilst sitting in aisle two, I would. But for now I have to pretend I'm shopping for my nephew, when really I can't wait to get home and put together my new model plain. This store is pretty big. And full of toys, as you might expect. There is sure to be something for every kid, no matter what the age.

I'm not sure whether going into Toyworld makes me feel young or old…read more One one hand being in a toy shop I feel like a kid again, but on the other hand I feel so old knowing just how long this shop has been around! I prefer Toyworld to other toy retailers, and I'm sure a lot of that is to do with childhood memories. I also feel their range is better though. This store is pretty big, and easy to figure out. You have toys for boys, then toys for girls, toys for babies, and sporting toys. Easy. The staff are pretty good, which I think you have to be to work in a toy store (when I last went in the place was being overrun with screaming children and the assistant kept a smile on her face the whole time.

I hosted my son's party here and I've never seen a bunch of kids more relaxed, composed and quiet in a party environment. Everyone was so immersed constructing Lego cars, towers and trucks. The party games were fantastic and kept everyone busy from drop off to pick up. I loved how every kid got a special Lego item during 'Pass The Parcel' game. No one was left out, and everyone got a special memento to take home. Party guests receive a party bag with lollies and one Lego character. Apart from parties, they host school holiday activities, corporate events and more! The shop has a beautiful stock of Lego, carrying themes from Harry Potter, Star Wars, Ninjago....you get the drift I'm sure. Laygo gets my thumbs up, will definitely be back for more Laygo fun!

Decided to have a fifth birthday party here close to the date of the review…read more On arrival we were met by our hostess and given an explanation of what was to come. The front of house has a very large collection of Lego for the "child" in all of us and the back of house contains two rooms, one large room for hosting the party and another where the adults can have a sit down and catch up with other parents or check out their Facebook status on their iphones. The Lego Party room is huge. Brightly coloured drapes covering the walls, as well as posters of the different models of Lego both on the wall and hanging from the ceilings, give a very festive air to the whole room. Bring your camera! In the middle of the room is a large rectangular table that caters for about 20 kids. At the back of the room in separate containers and trays are enough Lego pieces to build the Taj Mahal of all Lego structures. It was a great 1.5 hours with even the children you would consider shy came around quickly and starting to immerse themselves in the creation of their own Lego masterpieces! A few games later and a lucky dip and kids all left with smiles on faces. All the kids (and even a few mums and dads) participated in building using Lego and enjoyed themselves. Best thing is that someone else has to find those little bits of Lego that invariably make their way into corners, under chairs and tabled etc. A great day all round, it was well catered and organised.

This store is mental. What is it? Where did it come from? Why?…read more I have actually never heard of this chain before, but apparently it is all the buzz overseas. There are a crazy amount of stores all over asia and now they are branching overseas. It has Chinese origin and is jam packed full of stuff. Yes, stuff. Lot's of stuff. I don't know where to begin? Stationary, mugs, slippers, bags, pillows, toys, scented sticks, jars, things... things.. and some stuff. There is also a whole section devoted to gigantic toys. You know the ones that you see at the Royal Show for prizes when you win alley games. Those ones. I think if you are looking for cool little jars and storage containers you might like a few things here. But, otherwise just be prepared to be overwhelmed with things. Actually, I know who will love this store. High school students. This is a store for kids that want cute little toys to hang off their school bags, cool stationary and shiny objects to decorate their rooms. Don't get me wrong, there are some cute things here. Like a whole lot of cute stationary items. Loved the note pads and pens. But then I saw a flower bouquet of rabbits and teddy bears. I mean, who wants that? But, in all honesty, you should probably go have a look. It's not like any other store in Adelaide.

For everything a fairy could ever want, you must go to The Fairy Bay at Glenelg. Located in…read morePartridge Street just around the corner from Jetty Road (about 100 metres down), The Fairy Bay is your one stop shop for everything fairy. They have wands, wings, fairy dresses and for those in the know they even have their own supply of fairy dust. This special brand of fairy dust comes in an assortment of colours including the hard to buy White Fairy Dust. I have heard however that Light Purple Fairy Dust is absolutely the best kind you could ever buy. Fashionable fairies these days are also wearing butterfly masks and they stock a complete range of these too. If your fairies are in need of somewhere to gather for a special birthday party, the people at The Fairy Bay can help you by holding your next party in their special fairy room. School Holidays are also a good time for fairies to gather for story telling and craft sessions that come complete with lemonade and fairy bread.

I don't know much about fairies, but something tells me this store would be any little girl (and…read morethe occasional little boy)'s dream. Think of a fairy. Imagine it. Okay.

The Fairy Bay does birthday parties. They'll decorate your house to make your little daughter (or son) light up with joy and excitement. It's been open for twenty years. That speaks for itself. These fairies ain't going anywhere. They're here to stay. And though ownership has changed in the last month, the new owner have so far kept everything the same, and aren't looking to change it up too much.

This is the first outlet I ever went to actually and I fell in love immediately. I have nieces and nephews and I can't bear the Bratz dolls or John Cena replica's of this decade, thats why I like to buy their presents here. There are toys here that let you get creative, like jewellery sets and crystal forests, metal puzzle things, archeology sets and chemistry. Far more rewarding even if it is a little extra cash, I think I come here because I secretly wish I was buying it for me.
