It's a great store for finding cool and different gifts. I think the prices are a touch high; certainly not as cheap as walmart but it's different stuff.
AWESOME Store!
The staff are always friendly, the CEO frequently visits and checks up on the progress and the selection of items are huge.
They have everything from board games to ray guns, pop figures, puzzles, candy bacon and more.
The only thing I find is some items are a little pricey for what they are.
Overall though it's the best store in Chinook mall and a regular favourite of mine as a...

Great, friendly staff!
Cool treasures 'round every corner, and unique board games that are hard to find elsewhere. I went in here trying to find a cool set of trucks and cars for my cousin's boy. Found some great ones that he will have forever.
Great little shop in Chinook Centre full of fun things for everyone. It's a rather busy and chaotic store so I'd recommend trying to come in on a slow day.
I come down here for the stuff that you can't really find a lot of in the rest of the city, like Gloomy Bear, Tokidoki, blind boxes, etc.
The only real downfall of this store is that I find some of their goods overpriced. Many of the...

I love this store. It is one that I wander into when looking for a cool kids present or even if I just have some time to kill. I also recently found some great "prizes" for co-workers here.
The Discovery Hut has a great selection of toys and games for kids of all ages (including my co-workers) at a range of prices. Whether you are looking for a bit of a gag gift, a collectable item or an...

I love this store and will often brave Chinook Centre (even on a weekend) just to get here. I'd describe this place as simply awesome, but that doesn't do it justice.
I learned about Discovery Hut while looking for Kid Robot vinyl art and collectibles and this place has a great selection. They also have a great supply of plush and other vinyl art, and are so very up to date on new releases. DH...

Something in me thought Discovery Hut was a chain. Perhaps it's the fact that it's in Chinook Centre. At any rate, it isn't. It's not exactly your small indie games style shop like you might find in other parts of town. But then again, I doubt very much a place like that would survive in Chinook.
It's full of puzzles and games, all kinds of toys to keep children of all ages (even you!)...

Oh wow! I loved this store before they moved, and love it even more now!
With not too much effort, you can easily find fun things for kids of all ages. There is just so much stuff, you can't help but play with some of it.
Games; stuffies (stuffed animals); puzzles; toys; LEGO; and much more! Just go in and have fun. And, as others have said, just TRY to leave empty-handed.
The Discovery Hut is a great example of a modern toy store. They carry toys for the smallest of children to the oldest of adults.
I dare you to leave this store without something in your hands.
I just had to check The Discovery Hut out finally. This store rocks!
They have toys of all ages. There is a great selection of board games. I found a Halo Risk version, which I had to have. It was $60, but it is so wicked it was worth it!
I found Bert and Ernie hand puppets that I just had to get for my friends little guy! The quality of them was excellent and they were only $25 each, which I...

One visit to this store and you revert right back to being 4 years old again. And who DOESN"T wish they could be a kid again sometimes. I mean, all the toys, all the fun and none of the worries? Bring it on.
The Discovery Hut is just like the 'Who's Who In The Zoo' store, but bigger!!! There are toys EVERYWHERE and it's stimulating, exciting and the perfect escape from the everyday.
Whether...

Oh man do I wish I was a kid again... and stores like this don't help either! Discovery Hut is full of so much cool stuff I wish I could buy, but then I realize I'm a grown up and it would be weird if I had all that kid's stuff.
Even so, that doesn't mean I don't love browsing around in this totally awesome store. It really does bring me back to my younger days. Every time I have to buy a...

Located in Chinook Centre right outside of Sears, this toy store trumps Toys 'r' Us any day!
They carry Playmobil sets, Thomas the Train sets, and other collectibles that Toys 'r' Us just doesn't seem to get into. These toys are high quality and good quality.
There's a whole wall dedicated to board games and games of all types, there's baby & toddler toys, girls' dolls and lots of knick knack...

A cool little store- it sells a pretty big selection of toys and games but I find that they market more directly to the more inquisitive child. They carry a large selection of building toys (like lego) and science fair type kits for kids. Plus they have some of the collector toys like Webkins (don't ask how I know how I know about them but they are like beanie babies only more lame). If you're... more
