Your A-List, Best Toy Store

Austin likes to play. And it likes to do so in singular ways. So it insists singular toy stores.

It’s got them. The A-List vote for Best Toy Store turned up a fine list of mostly independent, quirky shops.

Romping into the No. 1 slot was Kid Genius, with stores in South Austin and West Lake Hills. It scooped up 37 percent of the vote. (Pictured: Story time at Kid Genius.)

Whole Earth Provision Company — more of an outdoor gear shop — came in second with 30 percent.

Two longtime faves — Toy Joy and Terra Toys — virtually tied at 13 percent of the tally. The rest drew 1 percent or less: Over the Rainbow, Anna’s Toy Depot, Monkey See Monkey Do, Kaleidoscope Toys, Hog Wild, Great Hall Games, Atomic City, BookPeople, Wonko’s Toys and Games and Kerbey Lane Doll Shop.
