How did your business come to be?: As a mother of 5 children I have experience with selling clothing to resale stores. I decided that if I worked hard and played fair, maybe I cod be successful in the children's retail marketplace.

What's a fact about your business that most customers probably don't know?: We are not a consignment store, we buy clothing and activity equipment for cash or you can earn 25% more if you choose store credit AND we REALLY are in Dexter now!

What services does your business provide?: Brand name clothing purchases and sales, new toys, puzzles, science, new and used books and a crafting room where children can create while parents shop.

What do you want your business to be best known for?: Fair pricing, smiles at greetings and fun!

What's your most popular product or service?: Melissa and Doug toys are very popular. We carry a great deal of their product lines.

When was the business founded?: July 14, 2012. The grand re-opening in Dexter is July 20, 2013 at 10 a.m.

Why did you choose to locate to Dexter?: After being open 1 year in Manchester, with the help of my family, we did a lot of market research and obtained a lot of information from local Dexter business owners, our customers, bankers and consultants and determined that Dexter has a customer base that could appreciate what we want to offer.
