  • Hamley's is the world's biggest toy stop in the world. Over 6 floors and over 264 years old (original store in Covent Garden). The Regent Street store opening in 1881, it became a location for the royal family to shop and the masses to visit.

    Happy Tuesday, Hannah! How fun today! Even as a “grown up” I still enjoy the occasional mooch ‘round the toy shop or section in some stores. The Paddington section and Mr. Bean teddy bear were wonderful! I also really enjoyed the London specific toys. Thank you for the lighthearted stroll today. I hope you have a fantastic week. See you Friday!

    • @yassybahar5775
      @yassybahar5775 Месяц назад

      Our toy stores disappeared mostly because of Amazon, the largest toy retailer in the U.S. Hamleys is the oldest and biggest toy store in the world and FAO Schwarz in New York is the most expensive store in the world. For $25 plus tax and fees you can spend the night in the toy store😮❤

    @jleigh329 Месяц назад +7

    I do agree with you that certain things should be free when you go shopping in person...like those arcade games. I guess over the years they've realized they can charge for something that used to be free and they know people might pay anyway.
    Also, I do think the sound was better in this video. I do feel like I could hear you better here compared to other videos. But maybe that's just me.

    Ps. The character you didn't recognise (18:28ish) looked like "Toothless" in "How to train your Dragon."... fabulous books and really good films to.

    AS a fully grown person but a kid at heart, this was memory lane experience at times.
    Prices for this experience boarded on outragous, but maybe a place to view the product before purchasing online or a cheaper place.
    Nice to experience via you though, not sure how I would cope.
    Look forward to Fridays video, keep safe and have fun Hannah.
    See you Friday. Steve

    I loved this video. Hamleys use to be such beautiful store full of with what one could describe as real toys. Old fashioned toys like beautiful dolls prams and Im not talking that long ago. They use to stock exquisite dolls from America and Spain and unusual toys but now it seems to gear towards plastic boxed things. With such high prices. I hate those flying things always think they are going to woosh my hair. Hope you enjoyed the rest of your day xx

    My parents took me up to London in the 1960s when I was seven. Hamleys was smaller, but as a child I couldn't believe it. My dream come true. I was most interested in electric train sets - then Hornby, Triang and Trix. There was also the football board game Wembley and the ubiquitous Monopoly with Mayfair and Park Lane etc. Ah, but those were the days ... always children at heart.
