Santa’s Toys has opened their second store in Owensboro as of November 14th, 2020.
Owners Heidi & Mark along with their children Hunter & Emily have decided after over 4 years of having a specialty toy store in Santa Claus, Indiana that it was time to open a second toy store in Owensboro.
“We have planned this expansion for a year and a half and Owensboro was always our goal for a second location.”
The new store is located right off the Route 54 Parrish Ave Exit, directly in front of the Meijer Superstore and Menards!
Santa’s Toys has a wide selection of specialty toys for all ages, birth to adult.
“Our whole family contributes to different areas of the store and together with our interests we find the best of the best for each category of toys.”
Industry Facts about Specialty Toys:
Specialty toys, in general, are different from mass market toys in several ways:
• Specialty toys are available at locally owned neighborhood toy stores.
• Generally, specialty toys are not based on licensed characters from television or movies, children playing with them have a greater opportunity to use their imagination and make up “the story” themselves.
• Specialty toys are sold at independent toy stores that specialize in customer service and have staff members who are highly knowledgeable about toys and play.
• Specialty toys tend to be of higher quality than mass market toys and last longer-often through all the children in a family and then into storage for the next generation! -than mass market toys.
• Typically, specialty toys are not heavily advertised on television and promoted to children as “must haves”.
“Quality toys are extremely important to us and with constant research we keep up on new toys and are changing our selections to include popular toys as well as what the customers have told us they want. Santa’s Toys is committed to offering a selection of toys that will spark joy and imagination with a fair price tag. Specialty toys are typically considered to be higher in price, but the truth is our selection of toys have a comparable price to any other store that sells toys. We take great pride in keeping costs down and since we are an independent specialty toy store, we can do just that.”
