Most of the stuff from the Canyon Rim store applies here. This store is a bit better laid out and perhaps a touch larger, but features the same collection. They seem to be largely moving away from the Bruder imports, perhaps because a few of the other toy stores I’ve been to seem to have finally caught on and are bringing those in also. There still seems like a healthy collection of eclectic and somewhat higher end toys, though I did also notice that a lot of the cheap Chinese junk is also making inroads. These stores are always clean, pretty easy to navigate and there’s stuff for the kids to play around with and try out. That they’re also a lot more geared towards educational toys is a definite bonus as well.

I love this place. My son came in because his spoke on his kendama broke off. They were more than happy to refund him which is awesome that they do that! Go to this place for toys! (Especially kendamas)

Lots of interesting, quality, thoughtful toys for all ages, yet still affordable. Friendly, helpful employees, clean and tidy store. Great all around!

I don’t mind taking my son here. This is why: The toys are interesting, some of them more retro that remind me of my childhood. The store is big but not a huge walk through it. Prices are what you expect from a local top shop.

A friendly toy store with lots of hard to find toys. I just went in for jax (super hard to find this classic toy) and left with a wind up bird toy, and a couple other stocking stuffers. The staff helped me find things and even called another store to see if they had what I was looking for. My only concern are the prices :(It’s just a tad high for me, but I will be back (probably for a neat science kit).

Red Balloon has a wide selection of toys for kids of all ages. I especially like that they have a decent selection of classic and wooden toys for little kids. You know, toys that don’t beep scream and play nauseating electronic versions of children’s music. I have purchased really cute imaginary play toys here for older children, such as small western action figures and accessories and a cute little tin tea set. If you are looking for high quality toys that are not available in big-​box stores and want to support a local business, you should definitely check out Red Balloon!

Red Balloon is a really, really fun toy store that has pretty much everything your child’s heart could desire. You’ll find familiar brands like Playmobil, Klutz books, Groovy Girls, Webkinz, Ty Beanie Babies and Thomas the Train. You’ll also find a treasure trove of other things, from board games to play food to dragons, farm animals, marble sets, craft kids, magnetic dolls sets, flashcards – and that’s just the tip of the iceberg!
Today I picked up a set of Velociraptor marbles for my five-​year-​old. I am his favorite.
