Is there a website that lists mom-and-pop toy stores? I have been trying to find HABA toys in my area and am having a difficult time locating independent toy stores other than the two that already shop at. UGH!

TIA!

Have you been to the Toy Corner in Vienna and Doodlehopper in Falls Church?

I know there's one in Old Town Alexandria too but I haven't been there.

This place came HIGHLY recommended by a good friend of mine. I'm thinking of placing an order, myself.

There is also a doodlehopper in Burke, right off the ffx county parkway. I know there are other stores, let me think...

ETA: Here is the link http://www.huntsmandoodlehopper.com/ They have haba! :)

ETA, Part 2: Which 2 stores do you usually shop at?

And I thought I was done shopping for the kids - they have an adorable people mover! Beautiful toys, I just can't resist! Off to shop....

Thank you!!! I usually do Treetop Kids and Go Bananas...no HABA. :( I am sans offspring today so I will try your recommendations ~ THANK YOU!!! All I want is a rattle/teether...so frustrating!

Yep, I got to those,too. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything.
I wound up doing my 'baby' shopping online. Good luck finding the rattle!
