Celebrate your inner kid with a romp through Toys “R” Us Times Square, the largest toy store in the world, featuring a 60-foot Ferris wheel twirling in a three-story atrium, an animatronic dinosaur and, to the delight of little girls everywhere, a life-sized Barbie dollhouse. The brand-name mania is tiresome – the Toys “R” Us logo, with that kid-friendly backwards “R”, is emblazoned repeatedly across the facade – but the little ones will hardly care, such is their eagerness to enter the dazzling, brightly lit playland. To that end, Toys “R” Us has certainly succeeded, making it all about the experience, rather than the products themselves. Adults will enjoy the massive store for the visual effects and soaring architecture alone. The entire space is awash in state-of-the art lighting, video panels, interactive gadgets, and bouncy, hummable tunes emanating from stereo speakers. If you’re here with kids, prepare for the inevitable purchase, or two, or three.

Kids love it

"I remember Times Square when it was NOT for kids. Toys R Us is a far cry from that. The Ferris Wheel in the store is worth it. The selection of toys is huge."

melliempa's rating:

"This store is every child’s fantasy come true, complete with a ferris wheel in the center of the store. It’s a necessary stop if you have little ones, but it can get very crowded."
