FAO Schwarz has been around since 1862 which is a surprise some because of the wide acceptance of Toys ‘R Us as the world’s largest chain of toy stores. But the German owners of FAO turned their modest specialty store into a world-renowned toy store in a short span of time. So, don’t miss the chance to make a special bus tour visit to this amazing Manhattan NY toy store when you get the chance.

During some of their promotions, they run some pretty cool discounts off of some of their toys and merchandize. And like Toys ‘R Us, they offer lots of toy brands ranging from Barbie dolls to Maclaren toys, from Lego to Playmobil. Grab some toys home and reserve them as gifts during birthdays if they have a discount or promotion on – it’s worth it!

But that’s not the highlight of this Manhattan bus tour stop! Now just imagine you’re a kid and you can make a monster or produce a doll or become a fashion designer or explore the art of Tutu Couture or make your buggy….how about that? Would that make you giddy? You bet! These are some of the kids’ activities that F.A.O. SCHWARZ holds for their bus tour stop visitors. All in all, it’s like entering a childhood fantasyland!

As you can see, it will be a real treat for the kids. To make a bus tour stop here, make your way to 767 Fifth Avenue, (Fifth Ave at 58th Street), New York, NY 10153. For details, call (212) 644-9400 or visit their website at http://fao.com.
