Alakazam Toys and Gifts is the creme de la creme of toy shops in Charlottesville. Opened in 2005, the locally-owned store is dedicated to helping children and adults cherish their youth and foster their imaginations. The toys held within this captivating downtown storefront promote interaction and creativity — a stark contrast to many currently popular toys. In fact, many adults who walk into Alakazam marvel at being transported back to their own youths through the familiar toy selection. These classic favorites are crafted from materials that are made-to-last through the years and through tough play. Other highlights include costumes for your child and their dolls along with art, craft, and science kits. There is a carefully curated selection of children’s books such as “special interest” areas for pirates, fairies, and horses. Call ahead to inquire about specific toys, or let the knowledgeable staff guide you.
