Nuts About Books & Toys is located at 3 on Mare – a lovely upmarket little shopping centre in the heart of Howick, KZN.

Upon entering, customers are met with an impressive assortment of colourful toys (wooden and plastic - educational and fun), puzzles, games, crafts and books. Thanks to the overwhelming support of our customers – locals and tourists - Nuts About Books & Toys has experienced steady growth since its inception in 2008. Being a member of the Midlands Meander Association has created much exposure too!

As the weekend approaches there will be a flurry of mums (and occasionally dads) rushing in to purchase birthday gifts for parties. Children like to come in and spend their pocket money on an inexpensive toy or novelty item, or the latest craze like marbles, Top Trumps or Top Model Designer books. If a particular Lego set catches their eye, they will save up enough money to buy their prized possession. Retired folk may pop in to purchase a jigsaw puzzle, board game, adult colouring book or a good novel to read.

Nuts About Books & Toys is very different from the average toy shop you will find in a shopping mall – sourcing unique toys and beautifully illustrated, wholesome children’s books by well-known and loved authors. Be warned, you will need plenty of time to browse in this quaint, one-of-a-kind country book and toy shop!
