Just Arrived Today - Airzookas! - Okotoks & Calgary Area Toy Store

Launch A Full Air Assault - Without Ever Leaving The Ground! Airzooka is the 'fun gun' that blows a harmless ball of air towards any object, person (or animal!). The airball will travel up to thirty feet and beyond... cackle with amusement as, seemingly from nowhere, you are able to mess up a person's hair. AirZooka operates simply by pulling and releasing a built-in elastic air launcher. And here's the best part: because it shoots air, you'll never run out of ammo (unless you happen to be on the moon!). Now in stock at Monkey Mountain Toys & Games and available in 3 colours: yellow, blue & black.

Just In - Adorable Back Sacks! Okotoks & Calgary Area Toy Store

Back sacks are 13" W X 16.5" H and come in a variety of designs. They also match perfectly with the stainless steel kids' water bottles that we sell in store.

The Magic of Christmas Fund - Okotoks Toy & Game Store

We are so excited to be helping out a great cause this Christmas called "The Magic of Christmas". The Magic of Christmas is a volunteer team of Santa and his elves who are dedicated to making Christmas special for those in need this year in our local Foothills community. We are one of the Okotoks drop offs where gifts & toys can be donated, the other being Village Lane Dental Centre. Also to thank you for helping out this great cause, you will receive 10% OFF all items that are purchased in our store and left in our "Magic of Christmas" drop box. If you are unable to donate an item you can always consider volunteering too. For more information you can also check out their website at: http://www.themagicofchristmas.org/ or phone: 403-938-7444.
