各位妈妈都去哪里给孩子买玩具？

[bright0415]

经常去的就是Toys R Us, Zellers, the Bay, Sears. 总体感觉要么玩具品种少，要么就是价格很高。各位妈妈都有什么好的推荐吗？这里附近有什么outlet买玩具吗？多谢了。

1056 bank st有家 boomerangkids的二手童装店里有不少成色较新的玩具，品种还可以，价格便宜，你可以去看看。电话：730-0711

Kiddy town, there is a big one at ST. laurent. Another one is called all about kids at Gloucester. It sells lots of stuff that other stores won't have, commercial and educational stuff. Most of the toys and equipments at the playgroup and daycare centers are from that store.
Another one called Playvaule on Carling,near kirkwood where that food bacic is. I notice lot of consignment stores carry cool stuff for kids.

我们家玩具多是二手的，kijiji, usedottawa, garage sale等。或者从朋友处借来的。也有从toy library借的。
新玩具主要从Costco买，少数从Winners，Superstore，Mrs. Tiggy Winkles，Walmart买的。从来都不去Toysrus，Sears或者Bay。

You can consider signing up at the Canadian Toy Testing Council. This way you will have many free new toys for 6-8 weeks for testing for 6 months of the year and then every fall you can buy the used toys at a major discount. It costs $30 a year only for membership. However, you do need to fill out a testing report for each toy.

Thanks for your reply

It is really helpful to get those information. I think not all parents know all of those resources. Thank you.

You will likely be signed up for the next testing year, starting next spring. This year is already underway.
