Sullivan's Toy Store in Washington, DC - Be the Greatest Aunt or Uncle Ever !!

Washington DC is an international tourist destination, and local flavor can be lost as a result.  Let's start a campaign to Keep DC Different. Support local stores and merchants. 

It's amazing how every place in America is starting to look alike.  Travelers see the same hotels, stores and food as at home.  Yet, when excitedly scrolling through Expedia or Travelzoo, that is not what people are dreaming of.  

We can create an atmosphere that can only be found in Washington, DC by supporting shops that are locally-owned and operated by sticking together during this economic crisis and patronizing local stores that are DC institutions. 

One of these stores is Sullivan's Toy Store. Put another way - do you want big box, bland toy stores to be the only ones standing two years from now? What makes a location unique are the local stores and local food. Every patch of land in the United States looks like the next because all the same stores are there, and the stores are identical to each other. Each town is just like the next one. 

Sullivan's Toy Store has the most creative and innovative toys I've ever seen. You will stand out in gift giving to the kids in your life if you shop here because Sullivan's Toy Store has items that chain stores don't carry. They also carry toys you enjoyed as a kid but can't find anymore, or the updated version. Sullivans Toy Store 3412 Wisconsin Ave NW Washington, DC 20016 202-362-1343
