Toy Stores in Boulder, CO

“A good place to buy lots of plush toys for the nibling. The lady wanted to know how many toddlers I was buying four plush toys for. I said "just one toddler." An only child is always going to get spoiled by his aunt (and by everyone else).”

“Pricey for my taste, but the puzzles are clearly top notch and everyone I gifted them to loves them deeply . Be sure to check out the miscellaneous extra piece buckets”

“Until a few years ago, I was a regular at these Liberty Puzzles. I live in Boulder and watched this company develop the most wonderful wooden jigsaw puzzles. But a few years ago, I became vision impaired to the point that I could no longer drive. And unfortunately, I found I could no longer do the regular puzzles. I bought a couple of the larger piece puzzles, designed for children and did each one, then disassembled them before gifting to my granddaughter. But there were only a few adult enough in design. My granddaughter can do them with minimal help at 7. The first one I gave her, when I still had normal vision, I could do in 20 minutes. The pieces are bigger. The one I got her this year, with impaired vision, took me several hours. Just for reference. I have built dozens and gifted many. Some of ours are framed in their special puzzle frames and hang in our house. Others are on display on shelves and bookcase tops. Many have been passed along to friends and relatives. Just as I was dealing with this, it turns out that they were developing a new line of puzzles, made for those with various technical difficulties like mine or those with dexterity issues. The pieces, just as intricate with lots of whimsy units, are about twice the normal size, similar to the children's puzzles, but art themed for adults. Given the chance to sample one, as a long time customer with changing needs, I so enjoyed the puzzle, I bought more. I now have the opportunity to continue one of my hobbies, having lost so many others. Just like audiobooks, I now use for reading, I have a puzzle option back too. Right now they have some choices on their website, but I am hoping the collection will grow. Just look in the section for "Silver Edition." There are so many of us in this situation and this company has responded. If you ever come to Boulder, stop in and get a tour as I described in my earlier review. It is amazing how they are made.”

“The most magical of shops on Pearl Street. A long time staple and home to toys of all kinds from tops and marbles to disc golf and books, this shop has it all. You can find kites, puzzles, things to build, things for pranks, and plenty of different types of balls. Don’t miss an opportunity to check this hands on store out.”
