Some games that are found at Marbles are a spin-off of a popular game, such as chess and tic-tac-toe. The prices are great and not any more expensive then a really well made game. The staff is really friendly and are really approachable. In my experience, I've tried out some games with a sales associate just to narrow down my gift search. All in all, really great selection and a perfect location.

Marbles: The Brain Store:…read more Excellent place to buy games and toys that challenge your brain in different ways - the store is divided into different sections: memory, coordination, visual perception, word skills & critical thinking. The staff is enthusiastic and fun to play with haha. I spent almost an hour playing a number of games with them and bought 1 game and 2 toys (going back for another game next week - I need to pace myself!) Will come in handy during the holidays (they have a wide price range from $10 to over $200). They just opened yesterday - my only complaint is that I wish they'd been open before the hurricane left us with an 8 hour power outage.

It's always been super-easy to update my subscription and I love discovering all the pop culture gems when I visit: used records, CDs, DVDs, Disneyana, games, toys, and of course comic books! All at reasonable prices. I love the bins of action figures; you never know who you'll find! Free handicapped parking can be found in the metered lot behind the shop on Chestnut Street. There are also several handicapped spots on Moody Street. Shop is handicapped accessible, though it is a pinch cramped in the back. I've been able to maneuver with a rollator and cane. If you need help navigating or reaching anything, the owner is happy to help.

A lot to improve here.

Finally, a real local, independent bookstore in Natick! This is a sweet little store, with a very…read morenice selection of books, especially for its size. They have a good-sized selection of kids books (for a store of its size), so it's a good place to bring the kiddos. While it's right on Main Street in downtown Natick, you might miss it if you're driving, since, although it says Ten Trees Books on the door (window?), the big lettering on the building says "The Hive." The store is still kind of in its early days, I think, with plans to add events and such in the works, according to Kim, it's owner, with whom I've had a couple of very friendly conversations. They do currently host a Classics Book Group on the first Thursday evening of the month, but I'm not sure if they have any other book groups yet. I look forward to watching them grow and hope they're able to thrive....I know it's tough for independent bookstores in this day and age, but I also know that Natick is the kind of town to have the type of people who will try and support it. If you live in, or are visiting, Natick and you like books, I heartily recommend checking it out!

When I brought up a historical fiction book I had just finished, related to current times, her attitude totally changed and a condescending disapproval shown through clearly. I don't go to book stores for that and I will not go back.
