“I absolutely love this location for both purchasing and selling items. For starters the staff are amazing when it comes to helping find what is needed and welcoming you into the store. I almost did not go due to the reviews but given my past experience in a similar industry I know that when people don't get their way they try to sabotage places. I am happy I chose to go into this location. It has a wide selection of clothing and even when the staff are extremely busy they still welcome customers and help them find things when needed. While I was there someone became rude to a staff member and despite this customers attitude the staff remained professional. I will be continuing to shop at this location it is clean and a positive environment. The staff all seem to get along and work together.
When selling to the location the staff are quick and accurate with timing. I brought in multiple bins and they purchased a lot of the items and explained to me why they passed on the rest. They answered all of my questions that I asked and were very transparent about the way that they priced the items.
Don't let the negative reviews of Karen's push you away from this Once Upon a Child. This was the best experience I had at any of the locations I have been to. I almost did and I am happy that I didn't and chose to give this place a try.

“My family and I came to the Lego store to look for a gift. While we were browsing we noticed a computer station where you can customize a little Lego person. We were very clueless as to how the process worked and what exactly it was. But Errol was working the station and was so kind, walked us through the process and explained everything thoroughly! He was so helpful and kind it really made our whole day! We left with a wonderful gift that was better than we could have imagined. Thank you Errol!”
“Wacky, thorough, and always guaranteed to make you marvel at their selection. I went here a lot as a kid for plane and car models, and continue to shop for various specialty items, gifts, and the sheer novelty. I have gotten board games, puzzles, die cast Ferraris, sandpaper, model rocket parts, and much more. Also really enjoy bringing my father-in-law, as he is a model train enthusiast - Hub Hobby is paradise for him.”
“Well actually I discovered on my way to a appointment a bag of items that had apparently been stolen a couple nights before and returned them to the store but they were quite happy to get them back and said thank you.So I guess okay with the store itself.”

“Love this place! They make shopping for baby stuff so straightforward and enjoyable. Egle was an immense help in finding the best stroller/car seat combo and custom tailored the selection to our needs and lifestyle. They know their products and are super informative!”
“The cutest children’s toy shop (and as an adult, I wanted everything). Unique gifts, stationery, candy, high quality toys, and more. My young friend loved her birthday present, wrapped beautifully!”
“The swing arrived timely and to the joy of the grandchildren. We had already secured lines to the tree branch so all we had to do was attach the swing lines to the lines from the branch. The swing is perfect, very high quality and easy to install. The first riders were the the grandparents!”
“If you love Lego, this is the off brand store for you. If you don't, this might be the store that converts you! They specialize in unofficial Lego, specifically military sets. You'll find jet fighters, submarines, humvees, and more. You'll still find a selection of official Lego sets along with stations to build your own mini figures.”
“The pie is to DIE for. When you walk in, you get to pet the Zebra from Zimbabwe which I think is rad. Prices are great too! Selection always proper as well and the staff is really knowledgeable especially Jeff and his love for pumpkin pie. No...I did not have Mushrooms”
“This store is a masterpiece of set building, customer service, and sheer toy selection. It is quite literally a wonderland surrounded by the regular world. Go here if you want to look around at cool stuff, and you’ll probably end up buying something to give to someone you love.”
“Knowledgeable staff and lots of variety.Went in to browse and found a couple fun nerdy games. Also didn't know Arkham Horror was a 1-4 player game and that there is a card game version!”
“I love this store been there before professional environment helpful, wish I could have applied at this one, Rochester one right now is awful maybe a turn around will happen soon but nevertheless this is the legacy I enjoyed!”
“5 stars purely for the customer service.Had a defective screw and most likely a defective part, I was dreading having to deal with customer service, instead the lady I talked with took care of everything for me and responded very timely.Had no idea they were in Minnesota also very happy to hear.I’ll update this post after I put it together,Thank you so much.”
“I went there with my friend and my mom and got a Munchlax bear. Kayla was the employee that helped me stuff my bear and she was amazing. We spoke together in Jennifer Coolidge voices the whole time and we all laughed about it together. It was a 10/10 experience.
Kayla is a real one. Promote Kayla.”

“I went to Kiddywampus in Hopkins for the first time the other day! What an amazing toy store! They literally have a little bit of everything including, Barbie, Legos, and Playmobile. I saw art kites, puppets, science kits, books, dress up clothes, stuffed animals and games just to name a few. They had toys for all ages from 0 to 100! They offer gift wrapping and there is even a space for parties or events! It will take a few visits to see everything! Since I have a bunch of kids in my life I will definitely be visiting again and again!”
“Beautiful store and, wow, what a selection of the latest baby items, especially for newborns and new mommies! Maegge and Kavi were incredibly helpful in the Edina store. The store is a must for buying special gifts to celebrate the new baby; the gift wrapping is gorgeous, and, again, you will find something that no one else carries, especially onesies and sweet baby stuffies, toys and books. While the store seems like an elegant boutique, Pacifier, a woman-owned local business with four locations, carries a lot of inventory and they are serious about their merchandise. Maegge and Kavi went out of the their way to find a product for me, and ultimately found it in another store. I look forward to shopping at Pacifier again and again. Very special place.”
“Get customer service. Our board game did not come complete, came back to the store and they ensured we had a complete board game. Now looking forward to hours of fun”
“I love the reinvention. They're doing their best to still have a great selection of books, but I appreciate the variety of higher margin, toys and games to keep them afloat. It's just a good vibe in there!”
“I’m visited the store to browse the D&D book collection Games by James had, hoping to find something that peaked my interest. While doing so an employee, I believed whose name was Ian, walked up and helped me decide from the selection. I loved that I didn’t even have to ask for help, and I loved even more the advice he provided. I ended up walking away satisfied with a Xanathar’s Guide to Everything.”
“Store manager Jessica is awesome. She had a lot of patience with my questions and helped me a ton with a discount she provided in the store. Definitely coming back when we’re in town!!”
“Quite the snazzy store for big middle aged kiddos to play in. Also, if you need or want to find a unique gift that you can't find in a Target or Walmart store, tis the place to go.
Fun noise makers, kaleidescopic toys, cars, magnetic monsters and more. Plus art supplies like scissors, clay, paper, wiggly squiggly pens, and more.”
“The State Fair sodas are probably their most popular, but the Serenity sodas and the Wizard’s brew are my favorites.I’m so sad that whenever I head into the shop, there are only 2-3 other customers. This store is probably Minnesota’s best kept secret.”
“My family and I always enjoy coming into Dreamers Vault. The atmosphere is very welcoming and the team are really helpful. The back half of shop is an area for people to come and play, and they host games throughout the month.”
“The is a small store but it is jam packed! There are novelty toys, stuffed animals, and things like coloring and maze books. I loved the selection of games and puzzles though and did not leave the shop empty handed. If I'm ever at the mall again I will definitely be sure to stop here.”
“As an Executive Assistant to a couple of busy business people with kids, I am often tasked with finding the best gifts that the Twin Cities has to offer for little girls and boys ranging in age from 5 to 15 years old. Having no kids of my own, I am often lost for inspiration. Creative Kidstuff to the rescue! I am able to swing by and have the well-educated and friendly staff help me pick out a gift, or even call ahead to place an order. Everyone working there is obviously passionate about kids and the toys that they love to play with - I've never been steered wrong! My favorite orders are the ones that I call ahead and send our driver to pick up. The staff always has a great time putting together options for me, based on age, gender, and preferences of the child(ren) in question. Don't forget to budget time for them to wrap the gifts in their signature wrapping paper! They always do a great job, and it is so much fun to see the requester's eyes light up as you hand over a beautifully packaged toy or craft for their kids to take to a birthday party. Thanks for everything, CK, and I'll be back!”
