Flying Squirrel is one of those places that, upon entering, you immedately feel at home. It could be the creative and homey touches like tree branches used to hang clothing, or perhaps it's the cheery handpainted walls, or maybe its the huge assortment of uniquely special collection of stuffed animals. Most likely, however, its the two owners who create this atmosphere rich in spirit, and make each and every customer feel like an old friend. Flying Squirrel has become a home for many of the neighborhood moms...as there is something new daily, due to the fact that not only do they sell new clothing, but, being practical moms themselves, have found 'hand me downs' a necessary part of being a mom. Their extensive collection of gently used items is both extremely practical and also quite funky and fabulous. Many of the clothing lines that they carry have a hand-crafted look and feel to them. Spectacular hand knit hats and scarves, one of the best collections of tee shirts in all of New York (many by local New York artists), toys, books...Flying Squirrel has it all. So venture out of Manhattan for the day to try something different. There's truly something for everyone here. Come once and you, too will find yourself hooked.
Pros: the great prices! the late hours! the staff!
Cons: none.

this is the best baby-kids store in NYC. with a great almost unlimited selection of second hand cloths and toys (very very useful, specialy if you take your kids stuff and get credit!!!) also, the owners and staff are very super friendly, those kind of places you can just go and have a chat while the little ones mess up. "two thumps up!"
Pros: second hand selection, great new toys also, harm and helful staff
Cons: none...
