Our new book room!

Or should we call it the book/puzzle/crafts/DVDs/CDs room?

We opened up a whole new room to make space for our ever-growing selection of books, crafts, puzzles, DVDs, and CDs. So many things to get the kids thinking and imagining in one room!

Crafts and puzzles

DVDs, CDs, books, and a couple lamps

Like the bunting? Our employee Nicole made it out of a picture book.

The book corner! We added a third giant bookcase to house the chapter books. And we created some more categories to make your shopping experience quicker and easier!

The new tall skinny bookcase just for board books.

 What do you think? Doesn't it make you want to plan an activity-packed day in? Maybe the next rainy Spring day will be Book Craft Puzzle Movie Day at your house!

Lots of DVDs!

Our media shelves are overflowing with more DVDs than ever! Stock up on movies for this winter's snow days (we know they're coming!) and babysitter nights. We sell DVDs for all ages at prices akin to renting. Who doesn't love a frugal movie night?

It's now easy for you to find the books that you want!

We know how overwhelming it can be to walk up to bookshelves that are probably full of great books, but they're not organized! We don't want you to have to feel this way when you come to Merry Go Rounds, so we decided to do something about it...

We organized them!

Yes, we went through every single book in our store and put them into categories.

The new & specific categories that we tailored to your needs are:

Here's the new setup:

Lilly Pulitzer window display

Hi all! Our latest window display was inspired by the prints and colors of the famous Lilly Pulitzer. We had so much fun using her signature bright pinks and limes.

Behind the mannequin hangs a "clothesline" which we made out of white ribbon and clothespins.

 

The Lilly Pulitzer zebra dress that inspired the display

 

Time out chair

We love this whimsical Time Out Chair. It looks like it's straight out of a fairy tale!

The clock has a real timer, making this as practical as it is adorable.

There is a timer on the back that controls this countdown clock.
