Such a great store to buy kids' gifts or take a class. If you prefer your toys with less plastic and more education, this is one of my favorite places. Plus they do all kinds of fun community events like setting up a voting booth during elections to let kids vote on things like unicorns versus dinosaurs.
Treehouse Kid and Craft is the absolute best place to find unique toys, art supplies, books, and baby gifts in the city. My son showed an interest in art at a very early age and Treehouse has helped him develop his curiosity and talent with after-school classes and summer camps. I have been beyond impressed with the knowledge and patience every teacher has displayed. There is also gift wrap for any purchase, which is a thoughtful and very helpful touch when you've forgotten to buy a gift and stop there on the way to the party....not that I've ever done that, of course ;)
