Toyrific

Billed as a specialty store for "big and little girls and boys," this well-stocked store offers a fabulous selection of both time-honored toys and the newest favorites. Most of the high quality brands can be found here: Ravensburger puzzles, Playmobil, Thomas the Tank, Koosh, Swimways and Legos Duplo. There are also hard to find items like E Team Dolphin Research sets and Down By the Sea bean bags. Traditional toys like table tennis, darts, horse shoes, badmitton, pickup sticks and jacks are offered, as well as cutting-edge “green” toys like solar kits. There are also Erector Sets, Lego Star Wars, Sesame Street, Early Years baby toys,  and wire and metal puzzles. There are lots of stuffed toys and F.I.D.O. dogs in stock. And of course, there are plenty of sand toys to bring to the beach, and they’re much higher quality and more creatvie then the ones you can buy at the tourist stores. Kites, featuring ocean themes like Jolly Roger, turtles and fish, are great for the breezy days the Outer Banks is famous for.
