Pun's Toys- Westminster UFO

This toy RC UFO is AWESOME!!!!! Distributed from the Westminster Co., the tiny UFO flies all over your house. It does use an infrared beam, so it is for indoor use only. The charger needs 8 "AA" batteries (they last for many charges) and you control the height by sliding the knob up and down the remote controller. The UFO has flashing LED lights which make it cool to fly in the dark. The product is $29.99, and they are selling very fast. Stop in and check out the display in the back.
We have tons of cool and unique products in the store and online @ www.punstoys.com. Please contact us (877-525-9789 or joejr@punstoys.com) with any questions you have or ideas you need.

Pun's Toys- Webkinz

As I'm sure you have all heard by now, one of the hottest selling toys over the last two years has been the Webkinz, by Ganz. They are truly one of the best values in the toy world. Buy a Webkinz ($12.99), or a Lil' Kinz ($9.99), and not only do you get an adorable stuffed animal, but you have access to www.Webkinz.com for a year (free of charge). This website is completely safe and stocked with hundreds of games and activities to entertain your child (and yourself). It is here that your Webkinz of choice comes to life, and must be taken care of by earning Kinz' Cash to buy food, clothes, and other necessities for him/her. There are hundreds of different animals to choose from and around 6 new introductions each month. The new batch for November is now at Pun's, as well as the ever popular Holiday themes- the Snowman and Reindeer.
Stop in to see the many different styles we stock, or visit us at www.punstoys.com (under "Stuffed Animals"). Again, please don't hesitate to call me 1-877-525-9789 or email me @ joejr@punstoys.com with any questions you have about Webkinz or any other toys.

Pun's Toys- Calico Critters

One of the best selling lines at Pun's is "Calico Critters" (by International Playthings). These adorable little animal figures are very imaginative, and collectible. We have girls from ages 4-12 that still play with or collect them. The world of Calico Critters is expansive: dollhouses, furniture, families, babies, themed play-sets. This line has it all!

They are affordable enough for a birthday party gift, and expansive enough to cover your daughter's entire Holiday shopping list.

A new Christmas set ($19.99) has just been released, featuring a grey bear as Santa and a bunny as Mrs. Claus, and can be found on http://www.punstoys.com/.

Pun's Toys- Gold Label Gifts

Who says that toys are only for kids?
We here at Pun's search far and wide to find toys, games, and gifts for 'kids of all ages'. I get the biggest kick out of customers asking, "what do you have for a 6o year old?" That being said, it is around the Holidays that we find the most unique things for adults: Russian Nesting Dolls, Music Boxes, and the entire line of Gold Label Carnival Rides. These musical toys are the staple in our locally-famous Holiday window. The rides include a merry-go-round, potato sack slide, Big-Top Circus Tent, Ferris wheel, swing carousel, the roundabout, and the most popular, ice skaters. The pieces range from $110-$165 and all play year-round carnival music as well as Christmas songs. To see the window, click on "About Us" on the top of our Home Page @ www.punstoys.com. If interested in learning more about these products, or need some ideas for the adults you have to buy for (sense-of-humor needed), contact me at 1-877-525-9789 or email joejr@punstoys.com.

Pun's Toys- "Hape" Educo Magnetic Marble Mazes

In the toy world, it is difficult to come across a great toy that is functional, safe, and age appropriate for a 2 year old. Everything looks baby-ish or has chocking hazards or is just beyond their age level. Well, the Educo Magnetic Marble Mazes fit the niche perfectly. We stock several different themes from trains and school buses to farm animals. The item is a wooden board with a maze carved out, underneath a solid clear cover. It is filled with many different color marbles (which are self-contained) that the child moves around the maze using the magnetic wand attached to the board (so it is never misplaced). It is the perfect toy to take to restaurants, or keep them busy in the car because it fits inside most carry bags or purses. The prices range from $17-$45 and the value is incredible. Not only is it a well made wooden toy, it will help promote your child's coordination and imagination. See them on our website (www.punstoys.com) under the "Preschool" category or stop in for a first hand look. Hope to see you soon.

Pun's Toys- Holiday Shopping

The holidays are quickly approaching, and you know what that means: PRESENTS...and lots of them. It is hard to find the perfect gifts for your kids, and that is where we come in. The staff here at Pun's has over 50 years of combined toy experience, and an eagerness to help. We are a service-oriented one-stop shop: we have a great selection of toys/gifts, we wrap them up, and assemble if necessary (we even have the greeting cards for the occasion). We understand that the holidays are a stressful time with all the kids events at school, the family coming to visit, and the headaches of traveling- at least we can make the shopping enjoyable. Stop in to our store on the Main Line of Philadelphia, or visit us online at http://www.punstoys.com/. We hope to hear from you and to make this holiday as stress-free as possible.

Pun's Toys- Goffengel Workshop Pop-Up Albums

A great find at the NYC Gift Show this summer was the line of pop-up photo albums from Goffengel Workshop. These are the next generation in photo albums, with each page having a main, center pop-up feature, along with several smaller pop-ups around the edges. There are three different styles that we stock: The Baby Photo Album, Rocket to Pluto (geared more for boys), and Fairytale Dreams (for the girls). All of these albums can be found on our website at www.punstoys.com. They sell for $69.99 and are well worth it, the quality and originality they offer will last a lifetime. The books hold 41, 32, and 36 pictures (respectively) and the albums can be stored in there thick, decorative cardboard cases for safe keeping. The Rocket to Pluto and Fairytale Dreams albums are perfect for ages 3 and up, not to mention a great craft and bonding idea for parents and children. I feel that the Baby Photo Album is a perfect New Baby or Baby Shower gift for the people in your life who have everything. Need other gift ideas, call us at 1-877-525-9789, or email me at joejr@punstoys.com. Also, check out the Personal Shopper feature in the top left corner of our homepage.

Pun's Toys- Halloween Costumes

We here at Pun's do not have "Halloween" costumes, per say. We do not carry Power Ranger, Batman, Superman, or Disney Princess outfits specifically. In keeping with our vision of letting children use there imaginations, we stock (all year round) a wide variety of "Dress-Up" clothes. We have things for boys and girls to transform themselves into anything from a fairy princess to an astronaut to a witch to a superhero. The dresses, outfits, and numerous accessories we carry are made of top quality fabrics and are designed to last (for more than just Halloween night). Who says kids can only dress-up one night a year? The website, www.punstoys.com, shows a few of the items you will find in the Dress-Up section of the store, but it is a very small sampling. Please don't hesitate to call us at 877-525-9789 or email me at joejr@punstoys.com to find out what we have available for your little ones.

Pun's Toys- Playmobil

Here at Pun's, we are firm believers in expanding your child's imagination and creativity. There is no better toy to help with this than PLAYMOBIL. A beautifully made German toy that puts your child's imagination in overdrive. There is a line for kids 1.5 years old to 3 years called 1-2-3, that contains no choking hazards and introduces this amazing line at a young age. From this, it develops into one of the most detailed products on the market, for ages 4 through 10+ years. The themes are very diverse (boy or girl); from Dinosaurs, Circus, and Romans to Farms, Dollhouses, and Zoo. It is one of those toys where it never gets old, there is always a new piece to add to an existing theme, or even mix themes to create a world full of adventure and surprise. We have one of the biggest selections in the area for such a small store, but it is worth it because of its popularity. Stop in and see what we have or contact us with any question @ 1-877-525-9789 or joejr@punstoys.com.

Pun's Toys- Sticky Mosaics

The HOTTEST items at Pun's right now are the Orb Factory Sticky Mosaics. They are an incredible craft project for children ranging from ages 4 through 10 years old. Essentially, they are the old fashioned color-by-numbers with self adhesive foam stickers instead of crayons or paint. And talk about value- each design takes about an hour to complete. Many different sizes and themes make the mosaics one of the most universal/gender-neutral gifts we carry: Princess, Fairies, Unicorns, Dragons, Dinosaurs, and the list goes on and on. The main size set (consisting of 4 designs, 4 plastic hangers, and over 3000 stickers) is $16.99 and fits into the birthday party price point perfectly (and we wrap for FREE). Several styles can be found on our website, www.punstoys.com under the "arts and crafts" link, or you can see the entire line in our store.
