Kids Market

Found adjacent to the entrance to Granville Island, beside a picturesque pond, Kids Market (kidsmarket.ca) is a three-story, warehouse-style shopping center aimed at kids. The yellow-hued building is topped with a rainbow sign, and invites youngsters to shop, eat and play, with over 25 shops and services on site. You'll find handcrafted toys, locally owned boutiques and bookstores, interactive arcades, multi-level play spaces, and sweet and savory snack spots to fuel up after a day of play. Be sure to check out the website for family-friendly events, which happen year-round.
