The Shadyside Variety Store offers up a great selection of old fashioned toys and games, puzzles and books. There aren't too many stores left like this in the country. Outside of Bryn Mawr, PA I haven't seen anything like it in PA. Great educational and interesting toys and amusement for children. In addition to straight up toys, the store offers project kits and all sorts of the other games that are a rarity in this crazy world we live in. The Shadyside Variety Store looks like something from way back when.
