Goodbye Nico & Zoe, and hello….

Nico & Lily Toys! Yes, it’s official. Just printed out the last of our orders & the website, blog, and all the social media will officially change name, today.

It’s been a great learning experience, these last 6 years, and one I hope Pam & I can look back upon and smile. Once all the paperwork is done, that is! But, change is inevitable…and a changin’ we are! Stay posted to www.nicoandzoe.com for updates as I, Stacy, open a new toy store, and Pam moves her handmade baby grabby pillows & other assorted fun to Etsy.

Sadly, all good things…

must come to an end. We are in our final week of business here at Nico & Zoe Toys. Thank you to all who have supported us over the years, and continue to do so. We appreciate your outpouring of love for us & our toys; it means a great deal during a difficult time.

And, in our final week, we ask your help in clearing out our inventory. Though many of our best sellers have already gone, we still have some fabulously fun, green, and high quality toys to go. From now to June 30th, every toy order placed with us on the website or in person will be given 30% off in checkout, no matter the size of the order.

Just use the code – closing – in checkout.

Remember, all sales are final. Sale & business will end on Saturday, July 30 at midnight.

-Stacy & Pam, the owners & parents of Nico & Zoe.

Wooden Rainbow Stacker, at 30% is just $9.80.

Sale is ON – get saving folks!

Before Pam & I close this chapter of our lives, we’re having a BIG closing sale. Help us liquidate & get some great deals on our one-of-a-kind, high quality, green toys. We’re offering 25% off every single toy we’ve got – while supplies last – until the end of the month. Just visit us at www.nicoandzoe.com and use the code closing in checkout.

Remember, this is a closing sale, and we will not be excepting returns (unless damage occurs in shipping).

Time to get shopping!

The toy store, it is a changin’….

We’ve been busy over here, with the end of school for Nico & Zoe, plus little sis, and a little summer fun in the sun that has FINALLY arrived to the Pacific Northwest. And, with the arrival of the summer season, we have a little news to share with you.

Nico & Zoe, making funny faces.

Long before Zoe’s arrival, her mom Pam spent her time in the professional world of web design. As they always do, priorities changed, and thus the thoughts of what to give that little girl to play with became much more important. It was there that the first ideas for a toy store focused on high quality, uncommon, and safe toys began.

Playing Together in Downtown Seattle.

Skip forward. Zoe’s an 8-year-old 3rd grader. Nico has entered the picture, and he’s even got a 3-year-old little sister. And, once again, priorities are changing. Pam’s found herself focused on a design job & career path she enjoys, and she’s ready to return, and maybe a little more schooling while she’s at it.

What’s that mean? It means that it has been a thrilling adventure, Nico & Zoe Toys, but it’s time for us to call an end to this period of our lives. It’s time to close.

Now, don’t fret! First, we’re going to have a sensational sale on our entire site. That’s right, every toy will be on sale. Good time to stock up on the gifts you know parents & kids are gonna love. We’re working on it now, and hope to have that sale up & going by Friday a.m.

Lily's Arrival, Nico's has a little sister.

And, the second reason is sitting on my lap right now. Lily, Nico’s little sister, has got my priorities stuck right where Pam found herself 8 years ago, and they won’t be changing for a good, long while. So, while the store Nico & Zoe Toys may be closing, Nico, Lily & mom are going to be right back at it. All we ask is for a little patience while Pam & I wrap the paperwork necessary to close, first. Once completed, we’ll be offering the same well made, imaginative, green toys we’ve always loved around here, just with a little name change.

In the meantime, stay posted for our sale announcement, soon!

-Stacy, co-owner of Nico & Zoe Toys.

They'll always be friends, no matter the changes, our 3.
