Went there for the first time on the weekend, and was bowled over by the layout, the products, and the service - this is an art gallery of children's toys. If you like 1950s furniture and modernist art, then this is the place to hunt for that "must have" present for your best friend's children. Design masterpieces from the simple pick-up sticks to spinning tops (with complimentary scientific explanations for the budding Einstein), to the most wonderful moulded plywood scooter. Lots of use of natural materials, particularly wood, and very few garish colours. Expensive, but nonetheless I expect to be a regular customer here
