This place is the definition of an identity crisis. It took me a solid 10 min to figure out what theyre actually about and the answer is toys! Theyre a toy store with some random soaps and old lady stuff in the front when you walk in. If you need a good gift for a kid this would be the place to come! And tons of yo-yos too for some reason.... In a word this place is random.

This is our #1 go-to for gifts! They have such a huge selection of games, toys, stuffies, home decor and knickknacks. I love Bird in Hand! One of the best little stores in Chico!

I truly love this place. I’d also spend more money and time if there weren’t so many employees (though incredibly kind and helpful) swarming around me anxiously. I’ve worked in retail and understand the stress and needing to eye people’s baskets to make sure no items have disappeared. I get it. I also struggle to stay in the store as long as I need to. My kids love everything here. But it’s too much. I’d spend more money here if I could get some space to breathe and ponder my choices.

If you like lots and lots of salespeople to help you find that perfect gift this is the store for you. They love to cruise the isles and watch what you are doing every second so don't touch anything or God for sake break something, always ask for help. After all they are right there breathing down your neck. A lot of the items I saw in this store are very very pricey, I think that's because they are not easy to find items that you just don't find in big box stores.I am rich so I can afford to shop here, I just wish they would give me a little more space to enjoy my shopping experience without all that hard sell approach.

Me and 5 people have been separately profiled on different occasions for stealing. They followed us out of the store, around the store, etc. Worst experience ever. Thumbs down

This store features the National Yo-Yo Museum in the back. More importantly, this store has a gift or novelty for everyone! They stock Jellycat London stuffed animals and Michel Design works collections that are hard to source anywhere but on the internet. This place is a one-of-a-kind and whenever visitors are new to the area it's one of the first on my lists to direct them to.

My boyfriend and I came to this store after having lunch at burgers and brew. We went in just to browse around and we did just that. When we decide to head out we are followed out by an employee who is an older white woman. The employee proceeds to ask if I had placed the lip balm I was looking at back in it’s spot. Now I was caught by surprise because I was wearing a skirt with no pockets, a tank top, and did not have a purse or bag to even put anything in. In my hands I carried my phone,wallet,and water bottle so I already have semi full hands. My question is “what did i do to make them think I’d steal or did she just assume I’d steal based of my appearance?”

We have supported this store for years. Every time we come in we always make purchases.The last 2 times we were in this store we were not allowed to use the bathroom after spending quite a bit. Simply because they didn't want to unlock it. The first instance we had to rush our toddler daughter down then street to a bathroom because the worker wouldn't unlock the door. The second instance was this last weekend. We had our family and my two 90+ year old grandmas. We were not allowed to use their facilities, when we were paying customers. It's just wrong. They had at least 5 people working at the time. There is no reason for this. We all spent money and we are kind people. Usually I don't write reviews like this because I like to see the best in people but this was not okay. This might not seem significant to others but it was really troubling for us. We will not be returning. There are other stores in downtown Chico that deserve the business! Just sharing our experience. I hope this doesn't happen to anyone else.

Fun toy store with lots of options for adult kids. Yo yo museum is small yet free. Located on street with many stores.
