    lots of things for little ones
    Ken N.

    This is a very nice toy store that is located in downtown Franklin. Lots of free parking on nearby streets and lots. The shop is basically a toy store on the west half, and a class room where play/game classes can be attended on the east. My first impression was that the toy store is somewhat small and many of the display stands target very small children. As I talked with the woman working there, she was able to direct me to some of the board games an construction activities that are geared towards older kids. I found the shop a pleasant place to browse and with the assistance offered, a place I would gladly return to look for a toy, book, or game. The only thing that holds this place back is that it has a much smaller selection than your average big box or online shop. But it is worth stopping by. Review #2193

    We stopped in Franklin for a look around downtown. I'd heard there were some cute shops, and we pass through almost every week without time to stop. Toodleydoo was SUCH a gem. The owner was a sweetheart and took time to talk to our boys while they looked around. The store was so well organized, clean, and bright and cheerful. I found some cute earrings and stickers for myself, and we settled on a family game and a set of little building toys. They had plenty of books, games, crafts, local items, candy, and so many unique things for gifts. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Franklin!

    I left for a minute and walked back in to find Debi, the store owner, reading to my little girl.

    I walked away from my kids to grab my latte that I'd sat in the other room. When I walked back in, the shop owner was reading to my little girl. That exemplifies your experience here. It's personal. I always go to buy gifts for the free wrapping, and they always help me find the perfect gift.

    Great toy shop! Quality selection and a variety of clothes and mostly toys, both fun and educational. Staff was very attentive and helpful.

    This is a cozy little bookstore with barely enough room for a person to navigate the racks but I…read morelike it. It feels so intimate especially with the books laying on the shelves flat instead of standing up. This way you can read the titles easier instead of having to lean your head over to read the spines. This bookstore is well organized. Our old friend Ken said it best! The books are grouped by genre first, then alphabetical by author within the individual genre sections. I had no problem finding my favorite authors, Lee Child, Michael Connelly and Harlan Coben. For Karen Marie Moning, I had to ask, but the staff knew exactly where she was without having use a computer. She was on the very bottom and we had to get down to the floor to see her books. No wonder I couldn't find her selections. But fortunately the staff is very knowledgeable about their shop and very willing to help you. I was pressed for time so I didn't get to shop for as long as I would have liked to, but I found one gem for only $5. I had to rely on Books In Series Order dot com slash "Author's Name" instead of my usual typed lists (they were not as up to date as I would have liked). I'm near the end of reading all the Reacher novels and Harry Bosch novels have been completed. I'm beginning to buy all the Harlan Coben stand alone books I've skipped over in the past. I'm finding the newer Moning books to be very rare finds in her Fae series. I gotta come back here when I have more time. I just know there are more treasures hiding from me but I'll find them because I am determined.

    This is an adorable shop! It's tucked into a small strip mall surrounded by several strip malls…read more(behind PNC, and to the north of the new Starbucks). I've always wanted to go, but didn't know what to expect so I waited. How silly of me! It's bright and clean and is full of books - both new and used (mostly used, of course). The prices are very fair and there were some great deals. Even new bestseller books were a dollar or more cheaper than the manufacturer price. A great deal of: - romance (historical romance paperbacks, especially) - children's books (used and new!) - westerns - Young Adult - Large Print - and basically everything you can think of! The woman worker provided great customer service - she explained how everything is set up and the multiple sales that were going on. I told her she had an adorable store and she told me it was her mother's! How awesome to have a family owned local bookstore in the neighborhood! I will definitely come back. Today I got some pirate bookmarks as a gift but there's a lot more to check out. You could be in here for hours looking at all the books.
