About Us

The Toy Box, voted Best Toy Store on the South Shore, is known for its outstanding selection of toys and activities. For the past 35 years, we have been a trusted community resource to thousands of South Shore families.

As parents of an active 2nd grader, our focus is on learning, creative expression, and of course having a whole lot of fun. Children learn through play and we take that very seriously. We only buy toys from trusted sources with strict safety testing, high play standards, and sound business practices.

Many parents, grandparents and other toy shoppers are surprised to learn that there is a whole world of engaging, unique, well-made toys they never see in the big, one-size-fits-all stores. They may not be the toys your kids bug you incessantly to get for them, but they are the ones kids will play with over and over again because they let kids make up the play themselves rather than have it scripted for them.

The Toy Box offers only the very best for your children. 

Play well,

Julie & Jay Ritchie
