Revelry Toys is a locally owned toy store in the Historic Woodstock Square area. My name is Heather, and I want to bring ridiculous amounts of fun and joy to this gem of a town and put unique and engaging toys in the hands of anyone who wants to play, create, explore, and imagine. 

I founded Revelry Toys in January of 2024. It started with the idea that toy stores should be hands on, community centered, and just absolutely ridiculous amounts of fun for kids and adults alike. I really do believe that small things can bring big, meaningful joy to people.

"Revelry" means "noisy merrymaking" and I believe that's what a toy store should be all about!

In early 2024, I found an opportunity to get started with my own shop by partnering with Sweet Caryline’s Candy Shop in Cary, but that ended with the closure of Sweet Caryline's in April. I felt like I had only just begun, and I had to find a new home quickly. Luckily, after searching for a few months, I found this great space on Throop Street, and opening day was August 8th, 2024.

Fast forward to today and we've been voted One of the Best Shops for Kids in 2025 in the annual Best of the Fox contest run by the Northwest Herald! 

I hope you walk into Revelry Toys and play with cool stuff you have never seen before, and reacquaint yourself with some of the classics we all grew up with. Hang out and blow bubbles on the sidewalk. Do some chalk art. Build with some magnetic tiles. Delve into the huge sticker selection. It's all hands on.

With Woodstock being such a great, family friendly walking town, I want Revelry Toys to be a shop you can just walk in and wander around in for a little bit, try out some toys (we have a ton of demos), chat with your friends, let the kids explore, hang out, and maybe pick up a cool toy on the way back from one of the many fantastic events on the square.

Revelry Toys is a place for kids and all their curiosity and energy. You'll find low, kid-height tables and counter tops, step stools, a play area, lots of demos, a really fun treasure collection program, Birthday boxes, and more.

Price points are really important to me. We have a huge range of quality and fun toys under $5 and $10 for all ages.

Above all, a toy store is a place to make memories and happiness, so I want you all to come in and have fun and embrace your inner kid who REALLY wants to talk about your favorite dinosaur (ask me mine!). If you want me to wrap a gift just so you can go home and unwrap it yourself as a little treat, I would be delighted! If you want to come in and bang away on the Xylophone, go for it!

Stop by and chat; I want to hear from you about toys, life, the universe, and everything!
