“Best educational toy store I've encountered in the SF Bay Area. From Five Little Monkeys in Burlingame to various Barnes & Nobles' toy sections, I find most stores have the same products I already know of from Amazon.This store had Melissa & Doug educational learning mats, Bruder Caterpillar branded construction vehicles, die cast cars - and gift wrapping for everything.Additionally, the store was an experience for kids - Haba train sets, Calico Critters homes, this was better than Disneyland for many toddler aged kids.I should've taken more pics of this place - mine don't do it justice for the expansive, modern, clean layout.”
“What a gem! The teachers are so nice, supportive, engaging, and amazing energy to have around your little one. My daughter does not speak/understand English so I was unsure if it made sense for her. That said, it's still SO much fun and she definitely still enjoyed it. She's 17 months old and daycare was closed for the holidays so she was looking for indoor activities! While the times don't work for us to be regulars, we will definitely look to do drop-ins when daycare is closed.”
“This gift shop in downtown Sausalito is one of the better stores, featuring local souvenirs with "Sausalito" emblazoned on them, and also fun products from around world like Studio Ghibli stuff and Adventures with Tin Tin books and gifts! It's a BIG store -- take some time to check out all the nooks of this shop! Prices ranges here depending on what item -- but there's something for everyone here. Staff are not intrusive and generally will service you at the check-out counter.”
“Very nice and small arcade! With a selection of 2 Chunithm machines, 2 Mai Mai Murasaki machines, the old DDR, Dance Rush, Street Fighter, 2 Mario Kart machines, a hockey table, a basketball hoop game, the punching test machine, and a WACCA cabinet.As a huge CHUNITHM fan, I've been looking for a cabinet that is online so I can save data on my Nime card. All of their games are online so I can finally start my process on my international version! One play on the Chunithm machine is $1.50. A very good price for 3 songs. They clean and keep their machines well kept. The Mario kart wheel wasn't as loose and difficult to use in the character selection compared to other arcades and the Chunithm machine's slider was smooth AF.There's also a shop of collectibles and toys in the back for any kids. There's a lot of cute charms I saw and if you're into POP figurines, there's several there.I'll definitely come back here for my Chunithm itch. :)”
“Come here for a quick gift to bring a fancy hipster toy to your next young kids birthday party. Expect to pay high prices, but in return, you get fancy packaging that feels good in your hands, as you marvel at the extra 5 minute effort the clerk spends to wrap your gift and stamp it with custom letters with the name of the recipient. The store is a joy for parents, but honestly like any fancy boutique you get concerned bringing your little ones in tow. This is a high brow gift shop, not Toys R Us.”
“Ying Hobbies & Toys it's the hidden gem you never knew you needed! My wife stumbled upon this treasure while on a quest for Gunpla goodness, and boy, am I glad she did. Tucked away in a cozy spot, Ying Hobbies & Toys might play hard to get at first, but once you lay eyes on its bounty of plastic wonders, you'll be hooked. The store might be small, but it's bursting at the seams with an array of model kits that'll make any Gundam fan's heart skip a beat. Seriously, choosing just one model feels like trying to pick a favorite child - impossible and bound to hurt someone's feelings. But fear not, the guy running the place is pretty helpful. With his guidance, navigating through the sea of model kits becomes a breeze! Oh and the pricing is super fair specially for all the cool stuff you can find. So, if you're a Gundam enthusiast or just someone who appreciates the art of model kits, do yourself a favor and pay Ying Hobbies & Toys a visit. Trust me, it'll quickly become your go-to spot for all things Gunpla. Happy building, fellow plastic yelp warriors!”
“Stopping in here was a highlight of our vacation! Rob is a wizard and really captured the kid’s interest and attention. His patient prodding and encouragement kept everybody entertained for way longer than I thought possible. Oh yeah, the puzzles are fantastic - we bought a few and have yet to get board! Excellent stop!”
“What a sweet and wonderful group of lady's running this store. You'll find everything you need for toddlers, which is especially hard about 4 years old. In between baby and kids clothes/shoes. Also the shoes I bought my son were not cheaply made Nike's that break through the toe within a month. Great stuff!”
“City of lights n luck, history also since 1000 years a business meeting place in evening starts twinkling all the night she dances sings songs of cultures simbles of history also fill colors, meetings place for pure genuine products dealing honestly at morning it's sleeps still khi wakes n sleep late”
“This store is a magical wonderful with great gifts. It has something for everyone. I love the great selections of toys, gifts and antiques. Susan has curated a great collection.”

“One of the nicest places in the city! They moved ailes in a different direction, and there are a lot more supplies and items to buy. It is also a great store to get greeting cards and toys and cleaners. Great for families!”
“Lots of wonderful clothing in all kids sizes. The store is well organized, clean and bright. Our stroller fit down the aisles so I could shop with my hands free. I'm the grandma and that was very helpful as my grandson was only 3 months old and can be wiggly when he is looking around.”
“Nice big shop right on the pier. Friendly staff and a large selection. I love that you can get little souvenir tee shirts and clothes for your bear, but my kids aren’t really the souvenir type so we got Pokémon, lame!”
“A fantastic toy store for kids of all ages! Average pricing. This shop is crammed with products, offering all sorts of toys, games, books, accessories, postcards and gifts. I especially love the selection of books about Sausalito and SF that were right at the front of the store.”
“I just love this store. I have taken my three boys in here every single time they get a haircut, since before they could talk. It certainly is hard to leave without a toy! I love the friendly staff, as they always know what to help with, and give us clean service.”
“You can find a bunch of great figurines, board games, etc. They have a variety of brands like Bandai, Good Smile Company, etc. Yup, nendoroids! The best shop in Japantown for figurines and authentic.”
“The exploratorium store was a cool spot with a huge range of gifts to get. It is the gift shop to the Exploratorium. I liked the black sand exhibit at the Exploratorium and asked the sales associate there for some. She was very happy and eager to lead the way to the black sand. They also have a bunch of other cool tacky stuff to buy from a test tube glass tea diffuser to crystal rocks.A jar of black sand was $9.72 which I thought was a fair price to pay.”

“Such a great store! Incredible selection of baby & kid things. Molly helped us pick out a travel stroller and car seat today and even helped us put the stroller together. Will definitely return.”
“A very small store for the serious anime- Japanese manga type figurines/ models and other collectables and some lower cost stuff for kids/ collectors on a budget.It's one of the few I know in the general bayarea that specializes in the trade and one the few that offer some of the original Japanese heroes collectable stuffing around SF”
“It's definitely a very cutesy type of store that sells Japanese products like Sanrio merch and many kinds of plushies. When I walked in the staff were nice and greeted me although I went on a day where there weren't many people in Japantown. I'm not this store's target demographic honestly, but it's still a fun store to browse around in when I have the time.”

“This store is spectacular with so many wonderful, loving and ambience feelings shopping in here. I am an adult without children but I love the little one in me. Thank you so much for sparkles.”
“I actually really like this shop in Japan Town. They actually have some of the best blind boxes for toys that I've ever seen. They story is on the larger side which is great, but it can get busy on a weekend so get ready to play bumper shoulders with a bunch of random folks. Still staff is pretty friendly. If you like Japanese cute toys, then this is one of the better spots outside of Japan.”

“I have childhood memories of going into that store with a childhood friend, Sandra. The very small, rubber toys were my favorite. I am glad to see it is still there, 50 years later.”
“I love shopping at the new location! It's cozy, friendly and welcoming. I always find something unique. The Swedish candy bag is my weakness. Get it gift wrapped, you won't be sorry”

“Incredible selection of toys. Exceptional service. Merilyn went above and beyond to help us. Sales associates like her are the reason we go to real stores instead of shopping online.”
