The Stocking Stuffer is a one-of-a-kind store in Peoria. It is where children 12 and under do their holiday shopping with a "Personal Shopper" helper. Each child registers at the door; parents and child are given numbered paint sticks to match up when the little shopper is finished and returned safely to the waiting parent. The Children ONLY Store gives children a great feeling of independence shopping without Mom or Dad. Children love to be able to select special gifts and have it be a surprise too!
