Age Appropriate
Debbie Necker, a mother of 3 boys herself, wants children and parents to play when they visit Necker’s.
With developmentally appropriate play areas all around the store meeting the needs of different age groups,
adults often times end up playing with their children while searching for the perfect toy or gift.
“If a parent gets their child a toy that they can enjoy too, they’re going to play with their child longer. I think it’s important to
have a common activity you both like since kids grow up so fast and you don’t have a whole lot of time to share in play.”
