Tweetables:

“We really do pride ourselves on our quality checks. Every single item that comes through our store it gets steamed, it gets tagged, it gets looked over by at least two sets of eyes.” — Sharon [0:19:07]

“I know that children learn through play, and I want parents to purchase a toy knowing that there is something behind it, whether it’s for fine motor development or social skill development, it’s all to help them grow.” — Sharon [0:20:43]

“It’s fun to walk around Tomball, and if you stop in our store, great, but if not, there are so many amazing restaurants, bakeries, and boutiques in downtown Tomball. It’s a really cool town.” — Sam [0:41:14]
