Once Upon A Child has three locations and lots of turnover. There always seems to be stacks of clothes, toys and baby equipment behind the desk waiting to hit the shelves. All three stores are often quite busy, especially on the weekend, so be prepared to wait to pay or to take your turn looking through the bins of shoes. With so much to choose from, chances are you’ll find what you’re looking for at a great price.
