This Fayetteville favorite is always full of gently used children’s clothes (often including Polo, Gap, Guess, Old Navy etc.) at discount prices. Once Upon a Child is also a great place to find new and used toys, books and equipment such as strollers and swings.  And, the store’s small selection of furniture including cribs, dressers, changing tables, bassinets, cradles and toddler beds always includes excellent bargains.

As expected, Once Upon a Child is kid friendly, with a small play area and plenty of parking in front of the store.

It is also a great place to go if you want to sell your children’s clothes and gear.  Once Upon a Child is a resale store, not a consignment store.  So, they give you cash on the spot for items in excellent condition.

Even if the whole cloth diaper/baby wearing thing is not for you, Terra Tots has plenty of items any mother would appreciate:

Worried about the recent toy recalls?  Terra Tots offers the sustainably made wooden PLAN toys and ImagiPlay wooden puzzles — both of which are preservative & chemical free. 

Wondering what kind of chemicals are in your child’s sippy cup?  Terra Tots offers stainless steel sippies and beverage containers by Klean Kanteen.
