There is, quite simply, no where else to shop for beautifully made toys and objets for children that Puddle Duck Toys. I find myself returning over and over again for everything from 'real' scientific instruments and experiments, crystals, magnifying glasses, wooden blocks and construction packs, to bags of miniature animals, paint brushes, paints and pencils and classic board games. But most of all I return for the pretty liberty scrunchies, hand made girls dresses and the Kosen soft toys that are worthy of museum collections and which will become family heirlooms. I shop here for most birthday presents and every family Christmas. You can spend $10 or $100's and the staff will happily send you in both directions. My discoveries of unique, quirky and beautifully made toys, from all over the world, are enchanting and endless. Nothing is disposable in this shop. You will keep and hand everything down that you buy for your children (I have shopped here for adults too) for generations to come.
