My personal favorite spot to store. Just plenty of things and fun to experience with. Amazing playthings and wonderful variety of playthings. Strongly Recommend to any or all of my buddies.

I love this store! My 6 year old and I wandered in at the Northshore Mall and loved everything about it! The staff was so helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. I mentioned a few of our favorite games and she immediately had suggestions to take us to the next developmental level. We loved that we could play with most everything in the store. It was well organized, well labelled and we could find anything we wanted easily. They had old time favorites like Simon, Story Cubes, Spot It, Scrabble, Rock Me Archimedes, and other developmental toys. Prices were a bit high, but I’m a sucker for games with a purpose. I’m a fan! Check them out!

This is the second marbles I visited. I took my gifted child in for her first visit and we both enjoyed it. Rob engaged my daughter’s mind which was great and she finally got to see some games in person that bear awards from mensa which she just joined this year. Rob was not pushy or rushed but just respectful enough and obviously takes his merchandise and role seriously as a facilitator for brain development. I am sure we will be back. The first store we went to was too small(Natick). The peabody store has lots of people flowing in and stations set up to explore the merchandise.

My family and I love this store. It definitely has something for everyone. Really clever and fun products — from crosswords to games and puzzles. The staff knows about all of the products and encourages hands-on testing. I’m sure some things are on Amazon for cheaper but it’s ok not to let Amazon take over every corner of the retail world. I have kids that are 7, 11, and 14 — we all love this store. Only thing to beware of is that if you go in, it’ll be a while before you can leave.

Went to purchase item. Find out at checkout that item was marked wrong on package. The whole display was marked wrong apparently. Instead of honoring the price($ 10 difference), the clerk brings over a small sign found on a display somewhere else in the store and proceeds to tell me the price. This was after she already charged my card… No apology, nothing. She refunded my card. Went home only to find out the two things my daughter wanted at the store are actually far less expensive on . Same exact product. Save your $$ and annoying sales pitches from the salespeople at the store. they try to talk you into everything you touch.
