US Toy Moving to Overland Park in 2019
“We are hopeful we’ll be able to hit the May 2019 target date” for opening the new location said Seth Freiden, CEO of US Toy.
It will serve as a one-stop party shop & resource for families and educators. …Hello convenience!
KC parents & children will experience US Toy in a whole new way.
…a more modern & convenient store to serve as a go-to party place for families while still providing all of the services and products they always have.
The move will also help US Toy avoid the flooding of Indian Creek River during rainy seasons, as well as provide vast parking options and space for outdoor events throughout the year.
