great selection of toys, especially if you're tired of all the plastic options out there

This place is great. Not only can you find original toy items, the people there actually want your kids to play with the items on display.

Sometimes it's worth paying a little extra for a toy that will last and does not contain the words Barbie or Brats!

One of the larger, private toys stores in the area, Finnegan's tries to differentiate itself from Target and Toys R Us, by offering "old fashioned toys" - dolls, old school trains and wood toys and puzzles, and big items like doll houses and Kettler trikes. They can order pretty much anything for you. Great selection of stuffed animals, learning workbooks/art stuff and "stocking stuffers" (wind-up toys, candies, rubber balls, etc.). Items are arranged on shelves for easy viewing and while stroller accessible, it may be a little hard to maneuver through the toys! Check out Little Finngan's next door for older kids - stickers and tiny toys galore, including a great selection of Hello Kitty.

a fun filled store for parents and kids. Even has a finnegan's for adults but my daughter manages to always find something cool there.
