If you fancy doing some shopping specially for the children, then Amsterdam has a large range of shops full of everything from designer childrens clothing, to extraordinary gifts designed with kids in mind.
Some of the shops are in the busy main areas such as the top floor of the Magna Plaza where designer store Bam Bam houses a multitude of colours and designs for children. Where as others can be found on many of the popular shopping streets in Amsterdam.
A list of shop locations and what they sell can be found below:
Bam Bam
On the top floor of the Magna Plaza, Bam Bam is a store where kids can get dressed from head to toe in some of the latest designer clothes. The view from the top floor where Bam Bam is, is amazing to say the least. But so are Bam Bam’s prices.
Exota Kids
On the edge of the Prinsengracht, Exota is a cool and trendy shop selling everything from knitwear to high end designer gear. Head towards De negen Straatjes to pick up the bargains.
Kitsch Kitchen Kids
This shop has more bright colours than you can shake a stick at. Although it may look at first glance like it is full of nothing but dress up gear and anything with a bright colour. Well you’d be right on the colour side of things, and the shop does sell plenty of dress up items, But kids love it here and they love the items in the shop just as much.
Mechanisch Speelgoed
Kids love this store, but so do adults! This is a fun shop that will almost instantly whip you back to your childhood. All manner of wind up toys can be found here along with a number of snow globes. The full list of what the Mechanisch Speelgoed store has in stock is far to much to list, but can include all of the following: snow globes,Finger puppets,pull along and wind up toys.
Oilily
A fashionable shop with some of the coolest looking clothes for kids on the market. (Some even fit adults too!) Items such as rattling toe socks or even the weirdest looking beanie you may have ever seen. Oilily is a shop worth taking the children round, and taking inside yourself.
Pinokkio
A shop where everything is made of wood, if the name didn’t already suggest that, then i don’t know what would. Pinokkio’s is a place where wood really does seem to come to life. Selling traditional style wooden houses, these weren’t made with Barbie in mind. Instead you can buy replica canal houses that are totally typical of Amsterdam. Why buy a wooden dolls house when everyone has one of those? Go for an Amsterdam canal house instead!
