It doesn’t matter how old your kids are chances are they (and you!) are pretty familiar with the iconic Geoffrey The Giraffe and the Toys”R”Us logo! One of my favourite things to do when I was little was wander around the aisles and make a wish list for my birthday. A just recently celebrated her big 6 birthday and many of our friends knew we had to move out of our house for a bit while restorations were taking place so they were kind enough to give her many – many! Toys”R”Us gift cards for her to choose her own gifts.
NOTHING says fun quite like a trip to the toy store – am I right? July 8th, you can experience Toys”R”Us/Babies”R”Us in a fun and interactive way at the grand-opening celebration of their shiny brand new Willowbrook location in Langley BC!
