Remember begging your parents to go to the toy store to just, ahem, look around? Then, if your begging actually got you your wish, you’d run around the toy store, pointing to all the toys you wanted. Just one little toy, please, you’d sweetly ask, pointing to the most expensive toy in the whole store. Get ready to relive your childhood, because once you merely get a glimpse of the Pennsylvania’s coolest toy store, you’ll be transported back to the past.
Don’t let the shiny silver stealth bomber sitting on the side of the road fool you into thinking you’ve somehow gotten lost on your way to Playthings Etc. in Butler.

Coolest Toy Store In Pennsylvania March 20, 2021 Beth Price-Williams What makes Playthings Etc. in Pennsylvania so unique? If you’ve never been to Playthings Etc. in Butler, you’re in for a real treat – whether you’re an adult or a kid. Don’t forget your camera, because you’ll definitely want to snap photos of the replica stealth bomber before you even walk through the front door. (It’s gorgeous in the daylight, but wait until you see it all lit up when it gets dark.) Playthings Etc. is all about a hands-on experience, so you’ll see staff and other visitors playing with the toys. If you see something you want to try out, like a scooter, just ask a staff member if you can. What are the best toy stores in Pennsylvania? Playthings Etc. is undoubtedly one of the best toys stores in Pennsylvania. After all, where else can you shop inside of a replica stealth fighter? The toy store boasts a huge selection of classic toys and all of the popular new favorites too, making it an absolute must visit. For another unique toy store, make your way to S.W. Randall Toyes and Giftes in Pittsburgh. It’s one of the oldest toy stores in the area, and you’ll find a treasure trove of goodies inside. Carve out plenty of time, so you can look at all the toy store has to offer – from classic children’s books and Legos to yoyos and Barbie dolls. Where can I find the best candy stores in Pennsylvania? Ask any kid which is his or her favorite – a toy shop or a candy shop – and they’ll probably have a bit of trouble answering. Pennsylvania’s home to some pretty spectacular candy stores, too, and some even sell toys. If it’s classic candy you like, you can’t go wrong at Shane’s Confectionery, the oldest candy shop in Pennsylvania. The Philly-based shop opened way back in 1863 and sells such goodies as chocolate-covered pretzels and gigantic lollipops. Every Pennsylvanian will also probably want to visit Hershey’s largest candy shop at least once, too. The candy store at Hershey’s Chocolate World, with its massive selection of all of the Hershey classics, will probably make you feel like a kid in, well, a candy store.
