The most expensive item in the Edwalton store costs £45

A new store in Edwalton is a "dream come true" for the owner who always wanted to expand her online toy business with a physical shop. Karen Dorn opened The Forgotten Toy Shop on Earlswood Drive, Edwalton on Friday, May 10, and a month later business is thriving.

Karen also sells a range of classic children's books, such as Enid Blyton and Roald Dahl, as well as classic games like dominoes and jacks, little trinket toys and old-fashioned polyglider planes. She added: "Small things that are not really expensive but you can have loads of fun with them. She described the business as being "a dream come true" as she had always wanted her own store. Karen explained: "Since I started the business I have always thought I would love to have an actual physical store to showcase the toys to people and give that customer service.
