When you walk inside the Toys R Us store on
Brooklyn Book Fest
, you cannot avoid the huge ferris wheel inside the store stretching over four floors. Yes that is right, a ferris wheel, inside a store! It would seem abnormal anywhere else but this is
Brooklyn Book Fest
, where extravagance and being over the top is the norm. Known as the worlds greatest toy store it boasts everything a kid could possibly want. It is very busy and will wow any visitor with its huge variety.
The setting for the store is ideal; it is huge, vibrant and so colourful. It is a lot more fast paced than its rival
FAO Schwarz
but that is not a bad thing. Apart from the usual huge selection of toys, video games, trains and cool displays it also has some exceptional Lego displays to admire such as a giant
HarlemWalking Tour
,
Chrysler Building
and an
Carnegie Hall
complete with its own King Kong. It will have you amazed and camera full with pictures. There is also candy, as if it was not good enough, the place is a heaven for kids but a nightmare for parents not wanting to spend a lot of money. Make sure you grab your
Brooklyn Book Fest
Toys R Us souvenirs before you leave that will remind you of just how amazing this place is.
