Frequently Asked Questions

 What do we do for fun when we aren't at the toy store?

We go out for adventure 

with our friends from

 Mild to Wild Rafting

& Jeep Tours

Then we come home for love!

We think that's a pretty perfect day right there. The only way it could get more perfecter (according to the guy you see on your right) is if we went to the dog park or up to Transfer Park so Rowdy could enjoy the river too!

Flashback Friday

 Words of Wisdom.....

 I just love this quote, 
"Don't play leap frog with a Unicorn!"

 When in a toy store, 

one must be ready for any adventure!

Remember when Mikey was visiting and we were standing on the corner by the restaurant and Debbie (his wife) said, "The stars seem so much brighter here than in Michigan!" Then, Mikey and I, at the same time said, "It's because we're closer!" That's just funny!

Whoa! 

We received abuncha new hats this week so I have been able to expand my horizons and go on new adventures just by switching my hats!  I realize the hat I have on in this photo doesn't look very thrilling but it really is!

This hat helps to keep my hair outta my eyes so I can see more clearly on windy days... or any day!

This hat has mountains and pine trees on it to remind me to look up when I go outdoors....

This comfy cap has velcro..... need I say more?

This gem is gently worn and has the words "Durango Colorado" right across the front of it! My local pride shows when I have it on!

But the most important role this hat plays is that it is an all occasion hat that has become my trusted companion!

We're studying for the Children's Fair

Today we'll be hitting the books so that we can fill our heads with much knowledge about the country Durango Toy Depot will be representing at the Children's Fair this Saturday at the fairgrounds. 
   We picked our country by spinning the world globe and stopping it with a finger that landed on our Island nation. It was then we decided that this country couldn't be any more perfect for us!
   This year we have much to do when you visit our Island....get ready for adventure when you stop by Saturday to get your passport stamped! 
   You may even learn something while you're having fun!

A day in the Life...

Working in a Toy Store.....

Silly Kaelin.....

I remember walking through a Toy Store as a kid and looking in awe at the walls that were covered in toys and games.  My parents would have to drag me out of the store because I would want to stay and play with everything.  As I got older, not much changed and now I find myself working at 

Durango Toy Depot and having a great time whenever I’m here.

Toy Stores have a certain type of magic that easily enchants anyone who walks through the door. There is something that brings a person of any age back to their childhood as soon as they take that first step through the door.

Today I find myself lucky enough to experience this when I go to work. 

An average workday for me usually consists of unpacking new toys. I like to use this time to test them out. Just the other day, I tested two whole boxes of new Folkmanis Puppets! Needless to say, they were very happy to be out of the box and going on new adventures with each other!

Working at a toy store means that I get to bring smiles to people every day and 

I couldn’t be happier!
