261 N Hwy 101, Solana Beach“I was running late to get a birthday gift for a friend and drove by this place! I saw the front display and knew they would have great options! I knew I needed a card and a candle. I quickly found the cards and while looking Lauren came up to me and asked if I needed help! I said yes I need a candle she showed me around and when I couldn’t decide she asked her teammate Faith. She came over and helped me decide with a well thought out explanation on why I should get one candle over the other! I am sure that my friend will love the card and candle! Great shop lots of options and super friendly staff! Also noticed an epic amount of epic kids clothes!”

Their adorable selection of high quality, unique clothing along with their fantastic selection of heirloom quality and beautiful toys have made it a must stop whenever I am in the area, and my go to website for birthday and holiday gifts. Having a store like this in your community is so special why it’s so important to shop local.”
“Super professional and knowledgeable staff. Helped me program my mosfet in my AEG and troubleshoot some issues with my GBB. These guys know their stuff and were very friendly and helpful. Nice selection of guns and lots of parts! Im just getting back into the hobby after a long break and am happy to see the inviting and supportive airsoft culture I remember is alive and well at AEX!”

12843 El Camino Real suite 106, San Diego“Used to frequent the location in 4S before they became a boxing gym. This location is always busy and has all the toys a child can imagine and more. It's easy to get in and out from and items are reasonably priced. This time around my son wanted a police car. How fitting was it that they charged $5.0 for it!? Lol Be back soon when I'm in the area.”

2670 Via De La Valle, Del Mar“From small toys to scooters, this place has everything. Great place to find a variety of toys and activities for you or someone you love. The store employees are courteous and helpful. They will assist you if you need help.”
“There are not many independent toy stores left but Geppetto’s really throws back to the bygone era of my childhood. Great selection of really neat toys. They have everything from big brands like Lego and Mattel products, to more unique and mindful and specialized toys that help develop the mind. Very spendy. Nice people!”

5885 The Crossings Dr, Carlsbad“Perfect walk-on location to Legoland park, a must with young ones. You can easily return to your room for forgotten items, clothing change, a nap, whatever. Lego play areas in the hotel also. Excellent value, families have room options with bunk beds. Lego theme throughout hotel. I like how staff and park people interact with and are willing to trade Lego people with the kids. Plenty of parking. Great experience!”

1 Legoland Dr, Carlsbad“This was our first visit to the Big Store located inside Legoland and we were under the impression that it was the largest Lego store in the USA. In terms of size, it may be true, but unfortunately it doesn't have the latest Lego sets we were looking for. Yes, there are more options here, and I expected the latest Minecraft 2023 sets to be sold here.”

220 N El Camino Real, Encinitas“This Five Below location is great except they've had the back part of the store blocked off for quite a while since November of 2022 since the store opened and the location is almost always out of stock of things and has the same item selection but other than that I really love Five Below you can find things under 5 dollars and upper and service her is great except they close the self checkouts and people have to assist you checking out which I don't understand why if it's self-checkout!”
“Awesome family owned toy shop. Wife and I purchased post cards and stamps during our vacation. Head on in with your kids to get some toys to dissect them from their tablet.”
