Fine, I'll admit it: I'm in love with Lakeshore Learning…read more I was first tipped off about this place by one of my baby's (okay, so she's two...not exactly a baby but whatever ;) therapists and to say it was love at first sight...that wouldn't come close to cutting it. I'm a mom of four (5, 4, 4, and 2) and my youngest three have developmental delays from mild to severe. While my husband and I have come up with some amazingly engaging/proactive activities for the kids thus far, we're always on the hunt for more, for better, for That One Item/Activity/Etc. We've Been Missing. Lakeshore Learning--much to the chagrin of my Visa card--has yet to disappoint. It's by no means exclusively a store for teachers; it's by no means exclusively a store for special needs parents. Sure, sensory items and activities abound...block play, active play, puzzles, and manipulatives in abundance--but this is just the tip of the iceberg. If you don't want to make the trip (although I don't know why you wouldn't!), hit up the website and request a catalog. It is huge, glossy, and enticing. Also? Lakeshore Learning offers up a pretty sweet check in deal for the mobile Yelping crowd. As *if* you needed more incentive to stop in, right? Riiiiiiight. :)

This is like the teacher and educator's superstore. I can't even remember why I came here because I…read moream not one, but did found some goodies that my kiddo likes. They have these little animals that she'd played with elsewhere and likes a lot. What I liked most here, though, is the art supplies they carry. I bought a roll of white paper for her to color and play on, as well as some foamy "paint" that she can play with outside. Service was friendly, and I appreciated that even though it's not a store I'll shop at frequently.

Great place for teachers to come and get anything they may need for their classroom. There's also a…read moresection for toys for children. Many things are pricy, however, but very good quality. They also had a sale when I went and I got a free tote bag for signing up for texts.

Great store for parents and teachers to get furniture, craft supplies, and toys for kids…read more A good chunk of items are store branded or brands you won't find at major retailers, lots of which are heavier duty/commercial grade. They frequently have coupons and monthly free activities for kids to make and take crafts. Some items can be a bit high in price, but others are more reasonable, all depends on what you're buying.

I don't know what's going on with the people working at this Paper Source, but they seriously need…read morea crash course in basic manners. My friends and I walked in just to shop -- not to get eye rolls and attitude for being excited over literal stuffed animals. Every question we asked was met with snark, and the employees acted like helping customers was beneath them. It felt like we were interrupting their day just by being there. Sorry for trying to buy cute jelly cats at your store? The whole vibe was unwelcoming and rude from start to finish. We ended up leaving because no one deserves to be treated like that over stationery and wrapping paper. Save yourself the headache -- shop literally anywhere else. Paper Source should be embarrassed to have staff that rude representing their brand.

We wanted to buy jelly cats and then she asked "well are you going to buy one" and we walked out of the store upset.

Every worker here seems to share a passion for books and the energy is infectious. I had to cut myself off, close my eyes, and slowly step away from the stacks. They also have some art and crafting supplies, paper goods, and vinyl. The prices are low and I think there might be some categories of people who qualify for discounts.
