Once Upon a Time (Bryn Mawr)
An independent toy store of the old-fashioned variety — thoughtfully curated, not overwhelming, with staff who actually know the inventory. Good for birthday gifts, rainy-day browsing, and finding things you won't see at Target. Kids are welcome to engage with display items. A genuinely pleasant errand to bring a child on.
