Shop Engaging, High Quality Toys

Retail at The Sensory Playce

At The Sensory Playce, our experience begins the moment you walk through the door. Located at the entrance of our facility, our thoughtfully curated retail store offers engaging, high-quality toys and sensory tools designed to support learning, creativity, and regulation for children of all abilities.

We proudly feature a wide variety of fidgets, an extensive selection of Crazy Aaron’s Thinking Putty, and one of the largest collections of Melissa & Doug toys in the Treasure Valley. Every product is chosen with development, durability, and inclusive play in mind.

Why We Love Melissa & Doug Toys

Melissa & Doug toys align perfectly with our mission to encourage meaningful, hands-on play that supports childhood development.

Educational & Imaginative Play

These toys inspire open-ended, screen-free play through pretend scenarios like kitchens, doctor kits, and farm sets, as well as learning tools such as puzzles and alphabet blocks. They foster creativity, problem-solving, and critical developmental skills.

High Quality & Durable

Crafted with sturdy construction, smooth edges, and non-toxic paints—often from wood—these toys are made to withstand years of play and can be enjoyed by multiple generations.

Timeless & Classic Designs

From blocks and stamps to easels and role-play sets, Melissa & Doug toys remain relevant and engaging year after year.

Screen-Free Focus

Hands-on engagement encourages imagination and connection without reliance on digital entertainment.

Grows With Your Child

Many toys adapt to a child’s changing abilities, offering new ways to play from toddlerhood through the elementary years.

Eco-Conscious Values

Melissa & Doug uses responsibly sourced wood and partners with reforestation efforts, supporting sustainability and environmental responsibility.

Why We Carry Crazy Aaron’s

The mission and values of Crazy Aaron’s closely align with those of The Sensory Playce. The company is well known for its commitment to employing individuals with developmental and intellectual disabilities, making it a brand we are proud to support.

In addition to their inclusive practices, Crazy Aaron’s Thinking Putty offers numerous sensory and developmental benefits.

Stress Relief & Mindfulness

Stretching, squeezing, and manipulating the putty can help reduce anxiety and improve focus.

Rich Sensory Stimulation

Unique textures, popping sounds, and special effects like glow-in-the-dark or color-changing varieties provide engaging tactile input.

Hand Strength & Fine Motor Development

Playing with putty builds hand strength and dexterity, making it a great tool for therapy and skill-building.

Never Dries Out

Made from a high-quality, silicone-based formula, Thinking Putty stays soft and playable—unlike slime.

Safe & Non-Toxic

Made in the USA with non-toxic materials and suitable for ages 3 and up.

Creative & Fun

With over 50 varieties, Thinking Putty encourages imagination, creativity, and problem-solving through endless play possibilities.
