For all your family's needs,
here are trusted local businesses we recommend:
The Montessori Room
With more parents realizing that traditional schooling isn't working for everyone, the Montessori approach has exploded in popularity in the last decade. Since gaining popularity, the market is now flooded with Montessori-style toys - but it's at the point that parents are often overwhelmed again and not sure what's best for their child's development. Let The Montessori Room help you clear the clutter. Every item you will find in their store is carefully selected according to these important principles: natural materials, beautifully made, ethically made, in small quantities, made locally in Canada (except when it was impossible to find it here). And of course, each and every item follows the Montessori or Waldorf principles and philosophy to help children become more independent, self-confident, and imaginative.
Beetle & Bear
Beetle & Bear’s network aims to facilitate the link between families seeking help and therapists with expertise, diverse skill sets, and availability. They aim to provide care for improving the mental, physical, and emotional health of children, youth, and families. This network has developed in response to a growing need for connection. The goal is for families, children, and professionals alike, to find a community of relevant, useful help, with caring, skillful peers and professionals.
Silly Goose Kids
Silly Goose Kids was founded in 2011. It’s now owned and operated by two cousins, Rebecca and Ti-Anna, who grew up together. As kids, Ti-Anna always had interest in business and had various hustles that she often dragged Rebecca into. They always dreamed of starting a business together. When the opportunity to own Silly Goose Kids came up, they both thought that it would be an incredibly fun and meaningful opportunity to finally work together, and breathe new life into a store that’s so beloved by the neighbourhood. So in the spring of 2025, they took a leap of faith and became co-owners of Silly Goose Kids. As parents, they are inspired by their children’s interests and play patterns. They choose toys they know they’d love, things that spark joy, creativity, and connection. They also want the store to be a warm, welcoming space, and look forward to hosting lots of family friendly events. They are so thrilled to be able to serve the Danforth community and beyond.
