our didsbury shop has now closed
Thank you to all our lovely loyal customers who have visited our shop over the 12 and a half years we have been in Didsbury. We have loved running the shop and serving our customers. Sadly I now feel that it is necessary to close the shop and move to online only.
Thank you to all the amazing staff who have worked in the shop over the years - Ruth, Lorna, Yvonne, Karen, Sarah, Lydia, Jane, Connor, Jake, Bella, Emily, Harry, Molly, Jo, Rachel, Sarah. You were all brilliant and we never once had to close or failed to get online orders out due to staff absence - someone would always step up if one of us couldn't work.
Thank you also to the suppliers who we have worked with and bought from over the years and thank you to the Didsbury Traders too.
It's been a blast, thank you all

CUSTOMER REVIEWS
A local gem. It is my first stop for children’s gifts or special treats. It has an incredible range of toys with brilliant service. I also use the shop for my play therapy kit and am always given great advice and the option to order things in.
Such a great shop to have in Didsbury, the selection is brilliant and the quality of the stock is always top. The staff are so helpful and kind - I was welcomed and chatted to, and when I said that the things I was buying were gifts, the lovely lady on the counter wrapped them up for me complete with a ribbon on the bag. It saved me a lot of trouble and looked great. Will definitely be back again!
Currently residing in NZ and bought a toy for my partner's niece on her birthday in here. It was a hassle free shopping experience. The customer service is really great. Prompt response to queries and wide range of toys. Highly recommended.
Love the selection of toys
Fantastic selection of quality and engaging toys. The ladies working here are always very helpful and seem to understand what my girls are asking for. Local store, none of that big corporate rubbish.
Lovely toy shop with a wide variety of toys from babies upwards. My children love visiting to spend their pocket money! There are lots of affordable toys alongside something a little more special. Great service from a locally run business highly recommended.
6 months agoOrdered online from abroad for the first time.... items delivered perfectly wrapped and within two days... lovely to see a local small independent business offering such a lovely choice.. very helpful and friendly staff... Will order again at Christmas x
A store where it is always pleasant to go. The staff is very pleasant and there are regularly new cool toys. I highly recommend
Let customers speak for us
It’s great to help my son with sleep etc
I've bought nine of these in total one on its own followed by another eight as gifts for my nieces and nephew who loved them - they are so cute!
On a more personal note, the company owner went above and beyond to make sure I got the ones I wanted- just in time before I lost whatsapp lol (don't ask)
I will definitely be buying from here again! :o)
