This housewares boutique isn’t strictly a toy store, but it does stock figurines of the Smurfs, Babar, and the Little Prince, and a nice selection of illustrated books. While cartoon characters like TinTin may not ring a bell with the younger set, parents will certainly appreciate them–and so will young teens, given the chance. Fans take note: Framed posters, ceramic crockery, and pricey resin collectibles (“Tintin in Tibet”) share this small Nolita space with Areaware home products. A great place for gifts.
