New Toy Store on Mass Ave to Celebrate Grand Opening on February 8

By: Kasey Upchurch

Indianapolis, IN—January 26, 2025—Goodies and Giggles is a new toy store on Downtown Indianapolis's 800th block of Massachusetts Avenue. This store offers an open, playful environment that features unique toys and gifts through a storefront and online shopping experience (coming soon) that encourages developmental growth, creative imagination, and motivates playtime. On February 8, 2025, from 10 am to 6 pm, Goodies and Giggles will celebrate two months of operation with a Grand Opening event with free activities, gifts with purchase, and a $250 giveaway on social media. 

This toy and gift shop is a dream for owner, Gwen Chastain, who has been a downtown resident for the past 16 years. Located at 811 Massachusetts Ave, Goodies and Giggles is here to bring a sense of community among local families by creating a space for them to shop and purchase adorable children’s toys and beautiful gifts while offering high-quality products including one-of-a-kind toys, specialty books, games, puzzles, and stuffed animals. 

“We hope to become a staple on Mass Ave for kids and families to enjoy. We want to see you, and your little ones, celebrating birthdays, holidays, and the many special occasions throughout a child’s life. We also have products for older kids at heart,” says Chastain.

The Grand Opening event will be a full day of excitement for families! Activities will take place throughout the day, including: Story time, hands-on crafting kit toy demos by Djeco Toys, a surprise vendor with kid-focused activities, and a Southbeach Bubbles experience! Customers will also receive a gift with a $50 purchase while supplies last. 

Leading up to the event, Goodies and Giggles will host a giveaway on their Instagram for a $250 gift card to the store. Follow the store's Instagram @goodiesandgigglestoystore for more details on the giveaway.
