From the outside to the inside this toy store is fun to visit. They have a large selection of toys for all ages and interests. The staff is friendly and helpful. If you are looking for a kids present or just a cool place to spend a few hours on a rainy day visit A2Z. The murals outside and inside are so colorful and really great for kids imagination.

I haven't visited this store yet. I live in Illinois so all my purchases have been on line. I was looking for a certain yo yo and they didn't have the color I wanted. So they called me and told me what other colors they have. I was just blown away about how friendly and courteous the customer service was . So accommodating. I absolutely love purchasing from them and now shop there for gifts for the family.

I've been taking my kids here for over 12 years and even though they're teenagers, they still love it. Fantastic store for all ages. Couldn't recommend it more. Just go!

I went there with my client it was a very nice children store prices a bit high. But more importantly the service members were soft spoken kind and very patient! The vibes were comfortable...

Aside from this being a great store for science and learning toys, which it is, and great service from friendly staff, you should also visit just to see the new murals in the bathrooms by artist John Higby. Amazing!

A wonderful store for kids of all ages. This is an excellent store for STEM toys. There's science and learning kits with activities for older kids, board games, puppets, stuffies, Legos, puzzles, trains and cars, outdoor toys, sensory toys, and even toys for babies. There's yoyos with yoyo classes. You name it, they probably have it. It's basically impossible to walk on there and not find something for your kids.

Our granddaughter kept seeing something she wanted in just about every section. She used the Unicorn bathroom when there. That was the hilight. Staff were very pleasant and accomodating.😊

Great selection of fun and educational toys. Something for everyone. Prices are average, but what I liked there were plenty of fun, inexpensive and cool things as well as the pricier science kits.

Wonderful toy store with books, rocks/minerals, stuffies, building toys, science experiments and more. Much more than you can take in at once.

I feel bad for people who have kids and don't have a toy store like A2Z near them. My daughter loves to go there and browse around. We buy all our Christmas gifts for her cousins there every year and A2Z packages them and ships them for us! So much better than Amazon. You go see the toys, pick out just the right thing and it's there on their front steps on Christmas Day. A2Z is probably honestly my favorite store in Northampton.

Awesome store, the kind of place that we're lucky to have, in this age of online shopping and giant chain superstores. Online shopping can't replace the experience of walking around this place and getting your hands on all the great games, puzzles, craft and science kits, and toys.My kids loved it, and we ended up leaving with a nice assortment of things, including a few games to keep them occupied on a long car ride.The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. Highly recommend!

Great place. Its a breath of fresh air to have a store that is fun to bring the small folks in our life's to. The staff is friendly and appropriate for children's experiences. Very impressed. There aren't any toy stores that are fun and have cool things that make memories in a child's life that they cherish through their childhood. My niece loved it and even learned a few fun things while there. They had like little stations where kids can try put different toys and fun activities. I really wanted to bring my niece somewhere for her birthday that was fun and she could in real life pick out gifts. This place satisfied that. Very happy customers. She loved looking at the rock and crystal collection and picked one out to add to her collection. You won't regret taking your little person here.

This is the most amazing toy store I've ever seen, and has been for a long time. Fabulous educational and fun toys for all ages, super helpful and friendly staff. Newly redecorated bathrooms are a destination in themselves! Well curated kids book selection. It changed owners a few years ago, but the outstanding quality has continued uninterrupted.

A toy store for adults and kids. I love going here and getting new fidgets for me or science lessons for my students. My daughter usually has to drag me out of the store. Support a local business with great service.

Always a 5 star experience. So nice to have a REAL toy store, they are a rare find. I've been going here since I was a kid. And now I go here to get gifts for my kids. Fun, creative, nostalgic toys and atmosphere. Friendly and helpful staff. Would recommend to anyone.

A2Z has been a staple of our family's holiday and special occasion shopping for over 15 years. We have filled Christmas stockings and Advent calendars. We've supplied our budding scientist with thoughtful games, toys and books and had a LOT of fun shopping there. Our family's favorite toy (yes for all four of us, parents and kids) was purchased here. It still works years later and we still play with it.

Best toy store I've ever been to. So many fun, quality educational toys. Every time a shop here, I leave feeling like I've purchased things that will help my daughter to learn and understand the world more.The staff is friendly. The inventory is great. It's a really fun place to hang out and browse. Prices are reasonable.

Loved the store. First time there. Enjoy the experience with my granddaughter. We were serenaded by an eleven year old who sang and played her guitar and enjoyed a magical show. What a perfect afternoon!

As a kid I loved going here it was probably the best store to walk into as a kid growing up in Northampton. I still enjoy walking in there and seeing all the engaging scientific toys they have for kids! It's a great place and I have never been disappointed going into this store they have puppets, stuffed animals, arts and crafts, rocks, ect. With a huge age range of games and toys!

I ordered all of my Christmas presents for the young children in my life from A2Z this year. Placed my order online and it came so quick I wasn’t even expecting it yet. The website was extremely helpful in guiding me toward age appropriate suggestions and I was able to get something for multiple children with a variety of interests that they’ll actually enjoy. I’ve shopped in the store before as well and the staff is friendly and helpful. I highly recommend shopping here.

Fun for children with interactive stations around the store to keep the small ones busy.I was amazed at the large selection of toys for the space of the store. Toys for all ages infants and up. Quality, learning but fun. Prices were high but in line for product offered. Not sure of return policy. Pleasant and patient staff. A quick walk from Main street or parking in front of store.
