(Le Mars) — A Le Mars business known for selling educational materials and school supplies is now about to expand to market toys in a downtown store. John MacGregor, owner of The Education Station says the business “The Toy Depot” will
be selling toys in the former Close To Home store located on Plymouth Avenue northwest. MacGregor says the toys will be on sale all year round.
MacGregor says the new Toy Depot will offer toys for all ages, including nostalgic toys.
MacGregor says in addition to nostalgic toys, the new Toy Depot will also feature nostalgic candies and beverages.
MacGregor says The Toy Depot will feature toys and games that you may not see at a large discount store.
At a time when it seems as though most toys produced today are an electronic toy, MacGregor says his store will steer away from the electronic trend.
The new toy store owner says he has actually reduced the allowable screen time for his children, saying playing with toys helps with a child’s developmental skills.
