Toy store

A shop specializing in homemade toys, in Oslo

A toy store, or toy shop, is a retail business specializing in selling toys.

No longer held to the limitations of a physical outlet, many toy stores now transact business over the Internet in addition to shops on the street. Many department stores also have toy sections.

Among the most widely known toy retailers are Toys "R" Us and FAO Schwarz. The flagship store of Hamleys in London is the world's largest toy shop.
