Great Kids' Shopping in Fairfield County: Toys, Clothing and Baby Gear
I hate to admit it, but I have become a snob. A children’s clothing and toy store snob. With three kids, I have absolutely had it with toys comprised of no fewer than five hundred tiny plastic pieces that invariably find their way under my feet. No more! I’m putting my foot down and investing in far fewer, but higher quality, toys and clothes for my kids. To that end, I’ve been scouting out stores in Fairfield County where you can find some inventive, sturdy, and long-lasting toys and clothes for your brood.
