Celebrating Toys

We got back into Boise last night from our trip to the Oregon Coast. Instead of going home right away, we went to the Children's Store - which was celebrating its remodeling and letting kids put their handprints on the columns outside the store. And, boy, were kids having fun doing that! It's a great store not just because of the toys, but because of "Willow," the resident cat. Willow was abandoned as a kitten in the alley in back of the store's old location. She's a sweet and patient kitty.

  2. Now all of those kids can go home and ask to paint the walls. Or better when Mom and Dad are gone they kids can do it as a surprise.

  4. Interesting for a French visitor to see how children are named today in USA, many Nathan here too, our Eric are more father than kids, and no Andy at all!
    I enjoy your blogs, these one and the other about plants and gardening, thank you!

  5. What fun. Sounds like a great store. Hope you had a cool "cool" time at the coast.

  6. I assume that by letting the kids put their prints on the posts, they have earned life long customers.
