Nancy's Favourite Toys

Picture
Boon's Animal bag helps contain the extra thousands of stuffed animals roaming your house!  It turns them into a comfy place to hang out, read a book and cuddle with a stuffy :)  If you need a stuffed animal we can help with that too!
Picture
Pretend & Play Sliceable Fruits & Veggies are a great gift for your aspiring chef!  Hours of play and imagination all while learning about healthy eating and practicing motor skills - learning can be snuck into play just like sneaking those veggies into the spaghetti sauce ;)
Picture
Skwish is an award winning, classic wooden toy that is awesome for motor skill development and perfect for teething! Keep one in your diaper bag and one at home.

Ladderball and Perfect Pitch Washers are great games for the whole family!  Both come with convenient carry bags so you can take the fun with you to the beach, camping and your backyard.

The Spirit of Giving

Winston Churchill once said "We make a living by what we get but we make a life by what we give"
and what better time to give than the holiday season? 
​
One of my favourite things about working at Gingerbread Toys is the kind, caring and thoughtful community that is the staff and Nancy.  We support a number of community resources  - UHNBC Paediatric Ward, Exploration Place, South Fort George Resource Centre and many local fundraisers just to name a few.   This holiday season we have three fantastic opportunities for you to help put a smile on someone's face :)
Picture
The first opportunity is the Angel Tree at the store!  Pick a tag off the tree and buy a gift, its that simple :)  There is a variety of age groups on the tree and we can help you find a gift that fits your budget.  Every little bit helps make Christmas happier for a Prince George child.

Gift Ideas under $10!!!

The second opportunity is tomorrow, December 5 and Thursday, December 6 - Country 97FM is hosting the 8th Annual Community Christmas in support of the St. Vincent De Paul Society.  More information can be found on their Facebook event here ​https://www.facebook.com/events/710778292636775/   - Make sure you are listening on Thursday at 2 pm ;)

Last but certainly not least, the UHNBC Paediatric Ward is another awesome place to give this holiday season!  Unfortunately,  many kids have to spend the holidays in the hospital and you could put a smile on their faces by giving them the gift of play!


We would like to offer a discount to anyone buying toys for these opportunities.
​Just mention the reason for your visit to receive the discount!
