History

Established in 2009.

The owners, John and Kirsten Dryden were inspired to design a store that offered a unique shopping and learning experience for children and adults. «One of our main goals is to excite car lovers and their children (or grandchildren) through a creative educational environment and enticing merchandise. We want to allow adults to share their passion for automobiles with their children through unique build and play experiences. We want to teach children how things work and about the evolution of technology. Above all, we want to make it fun!»
