Every since you first saw that savvy advertisement in the back of your favorite somic book, you always wondered: are sea monkeys real?!? Indeed they are! Of course, the wonders of marketing make sea monkeys out to be a wholesome family structure much like the Brady Bunch. The smiling momma monkey, the wise daddy monkey standing behind their grinning offspring gave the impression that sea monkeys spent Sunday afternoons playing ball or hiking. The truth is, sea monkeys ARE alive, they do last for years, and they are the easiest pet you'll ever own! Sea Monkeys are in stock and make a great novelty gift for ALL ages. Kits start at $16.99 each. Start you family today.
For decades the appeal of the yo-yo has captured the attention of children worldwide. This simple toy (a spinning top and a string) is at the "top" of everyone's list and is a great summer toy! We carry the original Duncan Yo-yo's as well as the super modern Yoyo Jam brand!

I found Rome a city of bricks and left it a city of marble.
Marbles are often mentioned in Roman literature, and there are many examples of marbles from ancient Egypt. They were commonly made of clay, stone or glass and commonly referred to as a "Glass alley".
Ceramic marbles entered inexpensive mass production in the 1870s.
A German glassblower invented marble scissors in 1846, a device for making marbles.[1] The first mass-produced toy marbles (clay) made in the US were made in Akron, Ohio by S.C. Dyke, in the early 1890s.
In Canada, the game is played using a hole. Two or three people can play this way, either solo, or in teams of two. One simply makes a shallow or deep hole in the ground using the heel of his/her foot. Everyone then takes turns (in no particular order) shooting their marbles at the hole, trying to see who can get closer. The closest person gets to go first at flicking the marbles into the hole using the tip of the middle finger or the side of the pointer finger.
Check out our HUGE selection of assorted and themed marbles!!! Starting at $3.99 for a bag of 25 (inlcuding the shooter!)
