Childsplayspot is privately owned by Carole and Rich
Holden, who are lifetime New Jersey residents. Rich started the business in 2002 after a career with IBM that spanned nearly 25 years. Carole retired from County College of Morris in 2008 where she was a professor in the Information Technology Department for more than 30 years.
Starting out as an e-commerce only business, Childsplayspot grew into a specialty retail toy store in 2003; and moved its operation from Lafayette, New Jersey, to The Mall at Short Hills in Short Hills, New Jersey, in September 2008. To preserve a viable storefront without sacrificing customer service and to maintain the personal touches customers deserve, the e-commerce part of Childsplayspot was dropped in 2008. The primary focus of Childsplayspot is to provide toys that are safe, educational, and fun. Toys that are environmentally friendly, made domestically, and durable are also important considerations in our buying strategy.
Childsplayspot takes pride in customer service. Our knowledgeable staff is trained to familiarize themselves with the toys offered for sale and to assist customers to find the ideal toy. Being the grandparents of three children, we understand the difficult choices, confusing labeling, and the over-hyped advertising presented to consumers today. Understanding these issues helps us to carefully select the products carried in our specialty toy store. Knowing that we would give any item carried at Childsplayspot to our grandchildren is testimony to the safety, quality, and value of what you’ll find at Childsplayspot. |
