Candice Brown-John hasn't added a story.
Hi!
Where are the stores like Mr. Magorium’s Wonder Emporium? Toy Stores, in their heart of hearts, should be about bringing children entertainment and wonderment. Their eyes should sparkle with excitement and dance with glee when they walk in. The idea of taking a store and making it much, much more is what inspired me to do this. This idea has been floating around in my mind for a long time now, and the circumstances are perfect for the idea to take root.
I'm Candice, and I have a vision. I'm a spunky go-getter who wants to bring family, kids, and community together in a safe, fun environment that offers classes, events, and the fun of unique, interesting toys!
The Lower Mainland has toy stores, but nothing in the Burnaby-New Westminster area that isn't just another big box store. When did it stop being magical? When did it stop being unique?
I am hard at work, putting together a business plan, developing strategies, and finding the best of the best for my store, which will offer fun activities and a safe environment for kids to come with their parents. Not only will I sell toys, but offer educational seminars, events, and different community activities to bring young families together. For the young in age and young at heart, this store will be a place you'll definitely remember.
To make this dream happen, I need your help. I've been able to do a lot, but need the support and donations from you and the community to help make this vision a reality. All donations will go directly into developing the space into something mystical and magical. It will help me paint, build and create a wonderland that kids and adults alike will remember!
Together, we can make a magical place that allows kids to keep their innocence and experience the fun and whimsy of being kids!
