I first discovered Mastermind Toys when I attended the Grand Opening of their first West Coast store in Langley, British Columbia last November. I was so impressed by the welcoming feel, fantastic inventory, and the staff’s toy expertise and friendly customer service, that I kept going back. We did last year’s toy shopping at Mastermind Toys, and we’ll be doing some shopping there again this year.
This Canadian owned and operated toy store has been operating for over 30 years in the Greater Toronto area and recently expanded to 32 stores across Canada. And they’re still growing! I’m so excited to tell you about the newest store in the Mastermind Toys family.
