Despite the gluttony of toys on the market it's really hard to find toys that are not only…read moreengaging, fun and age-appropriate, but pleasant aesthetically as well. Just walk into any toy department and it feel like all your senses are under attack. From the garish colors and cheap materials to the god-awful sounds that these things emit, you wonder what evil spirit possessed the people who designed them. That's why places like Si Tu Veux should be classified as national living treasures because the survival of the human race depends on them! This oasis of kid calm is aptly located in the chic Passage Vivienne next to other classy shops. The selection here is pitch perfect. Every item seems to have been selected with careful thought and consideration by the owner, a lovely woman who will, if you ask, tell you what kind of toy would be most appropriate for your child given his or her age. With my little one in tow, she selected a few toys for him to try out and we all agreed on this amazing DNA-strand-like construct made out of colored wood and bouncy string that my baby immediately gobbled up and slathered his approval onto. Not only is it super to look at, it's also one of his favorite toys. And I've never seen it anywhere else so the owner must have chosen it from some obscure manufacturer (or at least that's what I told myself to justify its slightly elevated price).

This is a great toy shop and I recommend it to anyone in Paris with their children. We popped in…read morelooking for something for our daughter. It did not disapoint with an adorable magnetic writing tablet. Easy to slip into my purse and interests our child for hours. The clerk told us not for babies but our girl is very very petit and old enough for such a thing. They have waldorf animals as well and I wish I had purchased a fox there. Very cute! ps: It's tucked away in a small Galerie so it's very easy to miss. The Galerie is lovely!

This store was a MUST visit when I decided on traveling to Paris. If you love Le Petit Prince by…read moreAntoine de Saint-Exupéry you will adore this magical little store! I think I spent half an hour looking at all the amazing Little Prince items. This little shop has books, journals, bookmarks, mugs, dishes, scarves, shirts, postcards, stuffed animals, bags, toys, figurines, cards, pictures, baby bibs, cookie cutters, key chains, onesies... Anything and everything Little Prince! The owner is super friendly and very nice to talk to. The music is calming, the shop is orderly and well stocked. This was the best store I've visited my whole trip in Europe! Next time I'm in Paris, I'll visit again for sure! I can't recommend this lovely little store highly enough- just visit you'll be so glad you did!
