Sign out front prohibits more than 2 kids per adult. I have 3 kids. Didn't go in. Seems like an odd policy for a store called "five little monkeys".
This is one of the best toy stores in the east bay hands down. We did the holiday present shopping here and staff wrapped all the presents for us. Amazing service here.
They sell pokemon cards and no one knows so its a great spot
Five Little Monkeys is a lovely toy store with a little of everything. Fun to find some of the classics from my childhood mixed in the new and modern. Really helpful and friendly staff.
A great little neighborhood shop with everything you wish you had while growing up. Science toys, space toys, wooden musical instruments, great LEGO sets for kids and adults, and so much more! It might not have the selection of Target or Walmart but that's a good thing. I didn't see any blind boxes or a lot of the other garbage that Target/Walmart sells. It felt like a well curated selection of tactile toys that would be great for little toddlers to about 10-12 year Olds. I bought a little book for a toddler that has six music pieces from Vivaldi that was paired with cute animal pictures. Simple? Perhaps. Cute? Yes. Great music that isnt from Baby Shark. Definitely! I feel that as long as your kid hasn't fallen into the YouTube blackhole or isn't trapped on Fortnite, you should be able to find a great toy.
