This review is for: Gram & Gramps

This is a really neat family owned business. They sell toys and higher end clothes for children. You can find a vast array of toys there, everything from old-fashioned wooden toys and hand puppets to the current, ever popular Thomas the Tank Engine and Playmobil toys. As far as clothing - it's better brands that you can't find in say, Target or Kaufmann's, like Zutano and Kitestrings. The also sell communion dresses and the like. The people who work there are very knowledgeable and friendly, and on more than one occasion they have checked their other store for me (South Hills) and have had the item shipped from there so I wouldn't have to travel to get it. The owner's dog comes to the store, and is really cute and friendly - will follow you around. Also, the first Wednesday of the month is "Whatta Wednesday", where you get 15% off most things in the store. Also, sign up for their newsletter - they often have coupons, and also contain helpful information like what the hottest toys are, in case you need a gift for someone and have no clue what children like right now.
