For the month of January, these are some of our favorite toys in the store! From Spirographs to games, find out what we’re having fun with right now!


Aquabeads

Aquabeads are such a nice afternoon craft! Arrange the beads into a design and then spray water to make them stick together! Lots of styles to choose from!

Crazy Aaron’s Thinking Putty!

Thinking Putty is the best! I use it to keep my hands busy during Zoom school. My favorite is the scented kind!

-Pierce


Dolls

I love caring for all my baby dolls! They keep me busy between feeding them and pushing them in a stroller. I even take them in the snow with me!

-Ella


Pom Pom Puppies

The cutest quick craft pal! Easy to make pom-poms become adorable dogs perfect for anything: decoration, play, or gifts. Different puppies can be created and accessorized using yarn, felt, and a bit of glue.

-Quincy


Crazy Aaron’s Hand Sanitizer

I LOVE this hand sanitizer! It comes in a bunch o’ fun colors, ‘n I can take it wit’ me wherever I go, whether that be t’ find buried booty or if I be walkin’ the plank!

Unstable Unicorns

“Build a Unicorn Army. Betray your friends. Unicorns are your friends now.” We love this game at my house – it combines a highly competitive card game with redonkulously cute illustrations. You should buy this if you like card games, adorable unicorns and destruction.

Sequin Pets

After a long trip out at sea, I always need to p-arrrgh-take in a little bit of self-care. My Sequin Pets are always my go-to because they can always make me feel better! The weighted body is so comforting, and I love making patterns in the sequins.

-Mobi


Escape Games

I LOVE escape rooms, but COVID has really put a damper on my ability to go out and experience them. Exit Games are the perfect way to scratch my escape room itch, but still be able to stay home and stay safe! These one-time games can be played alone or with up to 3 others in your household.

Peek ‘n Peep Eggs

I love the fun faces on my eggs! It’s so fun to try to put each egg in the right place, and I love taking the top of the shells off and putting them back on!

-Jolene


Q-Ba-Maze 2.0

Q-Ba-Maze takes the classic marble maze to the next level of innovation and creativity. The colorful interlocking cubes allow for endless configurations as you investigate physics and probability, while exploring art and design at the same time!

-Katie


Stickers

Stickers are essential to anyone’s art kit. You can add them to your pictures or attach them to a letter for a friend. You could even hide them around the house for a scavenger hunt!

-Julia


Spirographs

Take your pen and let it lead you! The spirograph lets you create tons of different satisfying geometric swirls. Choose a gear and a point to place your pen, and be surprised with the outcome every time.

-Carina


Kingdomino

It’s dominoes with a twist! Build up your kingdom by connecting similar land-types to score points multiplicatively. As a quick strategy game, it’s beginner-friendly and one of my top recommendations!

-Amara


Turbo Twister

This is a remote control car that lights up and performs dozens of stunts for indoor and outdoor use! I like how easy it is to use, and love that with a simple push of a button, it becomes unstuck from any situation!
