Great selection, reasonably priced, friendly and helpful staff. Pediped shoes are several dollars cheaper here than at Olly's at Sherway.

Its Expensive, like many others...but there is great stuff

Is this tip helpful? yes no

Really a lovely store. Although it's small the owners themselves have little ones and have done research to select a good selection of items. The owners are also very nice. Generally caters to kids under 3.

Treasure Island Toys Limited

It's a fairly large store with a reasonable amount of green and natural toys, easily accessible on the Danforth. It's a little more like a conventional store than some of the options listed here, but sometimes that's exactly what you need.

Great for cheap single-use toys and to use the novelty-effect; not so great for educational objectives or for environmental preservation (plastics only).

Large selection of second hand baby cloths and other baby gear. Amanda is friendly and welcoming. Play area set up to entertain kids while mom/dad shops.

Is this tip helpful? yes no

It's great to have a children's consignment shop nearby.There's one in Bloor West also - but I haven't been to visit it yet.It sure keeps the cost of having kids down if you are able to recycle some nice stuff here and there. I think they are still cash only. show more

This is a new store in the Junction to meet the growing needs of babies and children. I do mean growing. It's a gently-used and consignment-based store. Amanda runs it and she's made it very welcoming. Cash only for now. Nice clothes and accessories for babies and kids. Huge play area in the back. show more

Great selection of reasonably priced baby gear but in my experience customer service is either pushy or non-existent, with no happy medium.

This place has beautiful kiddie stuff... but it don't come cheap. Easily one of the most inspiring kid shops in town.
