		<description><![CDATA[Andrew Scott never fails me when I need a gift idea. During the past several years, I&#8217;ve probably spent many hours chatting with him in the toy store about kids&#8217; gifts and all kinds of random topics. Andrew works at It&#8217;s All Fun &#038; Games &#8211; a beloved toy store in my neighbourhood &#8211; which has moved to 1832 Commercial Drive (between 2nd and 3rd). A drastic rent increase forced the small business from its old location a few blocks away. It&#8217;s All Fun &#038; Games has many regular customers, like me, who support the store and see it as an important part of the community. Toddlers like to play with the Playmobil train set at the back, everyone who works there is nice, and it&#8217;s a really friendly, welcoming environment. They have an amazing Playmobil selection, games, puzzles, baby toys, art supplies, and a refreshing lack of weapon toys. In case you are wondering, I&#8217;m not getting paid to say this. I just want to share the location of this really cool store for anyone who needs to buy a gift. Just ask Andrew (or any of his nice coworkers) and they&#8217;ll give you a great suggestion, no doubt.]]></description>
