FUNdamentally Toys: A toy store with great products and fun events!

by Shanna Leave a Comment

Fundamentally Toys Circle Time1
If you haven’t yet been to FUNdamentally Toys in Rice Village, you should go! This locally owned toy shop was started because Debbie Scholl, the owner, became frustrated looking for good quality toys that were also fun and educational. And that is just what this toy store provides!

Not only does FUNdamentally Toys have great products, they also host great, free events! Some of the ones that will be happening soon are Crafternoon Activities (for ages 8 & up); a Frozen Meet & Greet with Elsa, Anna, and Olaf ; a Prelude Music Class; and a Pirate Night Magic Show. Visit the store’s website for dates, times and to RSVP for these events. They can fill up fast, so RSVP soon! As a bonus, while your kids are fully engaged in the activities you can probably take a look around the store without the kids clamoring for you to buy everything they see!

Fundamentally Toys Mask
My daughter and I recently attended a Fairy Tea Party and we had a great time. The girls (although boys would have been allowed too!) were encouraged to dress up in their fairy finery and the hour long event started with crafts. She was able to choose from a variety of materials to make her very own wand and mask. After that Tinker Bell had them take a fairy oath (which included being nice to others!) then sprinkled a little “pixie dust” on their wands and in their hair.

Fundamentally Toys Tinkerbell
Once all the girls were glowing from fairy dust and happiness, Tink sat down to talk with them a little about her life as a fairy and then read two fairy-related books. After the story time was over the girls sat at tables that had been specially set up for their tea party. Actual iced tea was served, as well as mini sandwiches, biscuits/cookies, and mini cupcakes! After the tea party Tink had them all form a circle and they did a fairy dance. Overall, this event far surpassed my expectations and we’ve already signed up for a few of the upcoming activities. Maybe we’ll see you there!

Fundamentally Toys Crafts
For those of you with preschoolers, you may also want to check out Story Time which will be happening every Tuesday at 9:30AM. The 45-minute event will include book readings with related activities. RSVP here but also feel free to just stop in if you find yourself looking for something to do!

jill-jarvis-bigkidsmallcity-circle-300 Welcome!  JillBJarvis.com is the go-to blog for things to do in Houston with kids!  It is upbeat and dedicated to making our big city feel small.   START HERE!    

On this website you will find a full list of Houston weekly events, things to do around the city, travel ideas and resources for parents.

I know just what it’s like to be overwhelmed by work, life and family. I spent a lot of years traveling for work, missing big milestones for my kids and feeling bad about everything.

I started this website to make a list of all the events happening around Houston and then pick one to enjoy with my kids. And instead of thinking of all the things I was missing, I started to enjoy the things we were doing together.

If you are a parent that is feeling overwhelmed by all the things you could be doing in Houston… please just use our weekly lists and daily posts as suggestions. Pick one thing to do with your family and intentionally ignore the rest!
