At this critical time, we are again collecting canned goods and boxed goods for Arlington Food Assistance Center. With your help, we filled up our bin and will continue to collect.  Please bring your donations  when you next visit the store.  Even one item is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Books, Books, and more Books
In our new slimmed-down Imagination Station book department, conveniently located inside Kinder Haus Toys in Clarendon, you will find many of the great children's books you love.  We have some of the very best books in children's literature. The book department has quickly become one of the most popular sections in the store. You can enjoy Storytime here at Kinder Haus, every Monday and Friday at 10:30 AM.  

The Tale of Kinder Haus Toys
Kinder Haus Toys is an old-fashioned store that stands for service, selection, and style. The array of high quality children's products includes toys, books, hobbies, crafts, clothes, shoes, and sporting goods. The toys are, for the most part, powered by imagination -- not batteries. Many are made out of wood. Many are educational as well as fun. Our store specializes in wood, with such toy lines as Plan, Haba, Anatex, Melissa and Doug, Nilo, Selecta, and RC2. We also carry great plush lines such as Gund and Manhattan, doll lines like Corolle and Madame Alexander.  The wonderful and life-like Folkmanis Puppets are not to be missed. We're making an effort to highlight made-in-the-USA lines such as Lauri puzzles and games and Uncle Goose block wagons.  We are also highlighting Plan toys that are made in Thailand, and  Haba and Selecta that are for the most part made in Germany.

Commitment to Community
Kinder Haus Toys has a long record of community involvement. Not only do we contribute merchandise to fundraisers for organizations and schools whenever possible, we also hold many free events for families to enjoy, such as our Arts & Crafts activities and Storytime on Mondays and Fridays. Sue Pyatt and her family have owned the store since 1982. She says, "My children grew up in the store and so did many other kids in Arlington. Now my daughter, Jennifer, is our manager." Sue is the author of two popular children's books that she hopes every aspiring young lady will consider. Call Me Madame President and President Amanda's Whistle-stop Trip are about a little girl who dreams of being president of the United States.

Events
Please join us on Mondays and Fridays at 10:30 AM for Storytime with the terrific Ms. Laura.  Because Storytimes have become so popular, registration is now required. See our Calendar of Events for a complete schedule.
