Kid Genius Toys, Austin

My daughter fell in love with Kid Genius on our first visit there. It's on the popular South Congress shopping strip. After a nice meal and visit to local art galleries, we enjoyed the change of pace Kid Genius offered. It's a lively atmosphere with every sort of toy and game imaginable - if your children are into toys that do require more attention than how to use a joystick. Gorgeous dolls, beautiful wooden playsets, old style electric trains plus all the latest plush toys. The assortment of "toy soldiers" goes back to cave man days through medieval era to the present. My daughter immediately grabbed a few knights on horseback, a few surfs and some nobles and in no time she and the owner's daughter were transported back in time. I'm so glad we found this place! My daughter bugs me all the time.."when are we going back to Kid Genius?"....
