Prague

Child shopping in Prague

  1. A

    Houpací Kůň

    The ‘Rocking Horse’ toy shop houses a collection of carved wooden folk dolls, old 1950s wind-up tractors, toy cars and – surprise – even a couple of rocking horses. There are quality toys and art supplies you won’t find anywhere else in Prague, but for a typically Czech souvenir look out for the famous and ubiquitous Little Mole character, available here in several guises.

    Pohádka

    This store is sometimes beset by souvenir-hunting tour groups and it harbours matryoshky (Russian stacking dolls) - artefacts that have nothing to do with Prague, despite their annoying ubiquity. Surprisingly then, it's also a pretty good place to shop for genuine Czech toys, from cuddly Little Moles to marionettes, via costumed dolls, finger puppets, rocking horses, toy cars and more.

    Sparkys

    While this is Prague's biggest toy store and hard to miss, it seems firmly aimed at local residents. All the same, you can find traditional toys and marionettes among its collection of teddy bears and DVDs. Enjoy the browse or ask a shop assistant.

    Zerba

    This place is a paradise for model-railway enthusiasts of all ages, with a huge range of track and rolling stock in N- and OO-gauge, as well as a good selection of Scalextric racing sets and Matchbox model cars.
