12 Days of Holiday Gifts From Richmond VA Businesses | Toys That Teach

Searching for a wonderful toy for that special child on your list? Or, how about something for the kid inside all of us? Then look no further than the 10th pick in my 12 days of holiday gifts from Richmond VA business, Toys That Teach!

With two locations, one in Henrico, VA and one in Richmond, VA, shopping for a unique toy is easy peasy! Toys That Teach is a store that focuses on toys that encourage independent play, cooperative play, developing fine motor skills, visual stimulation, creative play, language development, logical thinking, and learning through music. The staff is very informative about the products that they carry and can assist you with selecting the perfect present for even the hardest to please on your list.

My children love Toys That Teach as they are encouraged to explore the store and discover something new. On my last visit, my son purchased an Icky Poo which is basically a stretchy, gooey pole with a hand on the end that picks up things but won’t stick to you. When the stickiness rubs off, you simply rinse it with water and it is ready to go again. This inexpensive toy kept my 5 year old son entertained for days! My daughter had a difficult time selecting just one item, but ultimately ended up with a princess/fairy plush toy. She still sleeps with it to this day! And, we couldn’t leave Toys That Teach without getting something for their friend who has a curiosity for bugs, thus we bought a magnifying glass and a bug keeper container. How is that for variety?

So skip the long lines at the big box stores and shop local this year with my 10th pick of the 12 days of holiday gifts from Richmond VA businesses,  Toys That Teach!
