Old City Kites at 1017 Front Street in Old Sacramento is really an awesome toy store and a very fun shopping existence. It frustrates me that they don’t advertise themselves better as a toy store because for a small store they are exceptional buyers and truly have some of the best stocking stuffers, the best games, and other imaginative non Toys R Us kinds of toys (but not just kites and wood, really fun toys).
Old Sac is also just a tremendous place to do your christmas shopping period. There’s another toy store just down the way that’s good. There’s a game store. There are good clothing and boutiques. There are antique shops. (assuming they’re all still open, which these days gets less and less easy to do.
