chapters indigo: my happy place & a perfect spot for kids shopping too! (#indigokids gift card giveaway!)

If ever I get a chance to go shopping alone, usually my first stop is Chapters Indigo. It’s quiet, tranquil and there are always the most beautiful things to look at — gorgeous home decor, elegant candles, aromatherapy bath and body products, health and wellness items, yoga accessories and pretty much everything makes the perfect gift for someone.

But the areas of the store that I always spend the most time in? The baby section…

Since I can always find adorable organic clothing, plush animals and blankets and a ton of non-toxic baby toys.

And the Indigo Kids (huge!) section that is jampacked with all the brands that I love for my own children. There are a ton of classics yet all the modern, eco-friendly brands we’re after.

The Indigo Kids section also has play areas set up for little ones and lots of chairs for moms and dads to take a seat and sip a coffee while the kids play. Train tables, ride-ons, learning laptops, coloring…it’s a guaranteed good hour of fun everytime.

Before this opportunity to review the store came along, Indigo Kids was always one of my first stops for children’s gift ideas. The selection is fantastic and also hand picked which means the shelves resemble nothing of those at the big box toy stores. They have FREE gift wrapping, pre-made loot bags, Pinterest worthy party decor, and when you shop online it’s soooo easy with their “shop by age” category.

And when it comes to needing a hand picking out a gift there is always someone around ready to help (and who actually OFFER their help!!) Lana, at the location on 170th street in Edmonton greets me with the warmest smile everytime I visit the store. She’s helped me pick out gifts, dig deep for specific  colors of items that I’m looking for and the great thing is I never feel rushed. Or like I’m an inconvenience or that my children shouldn’t be in the store…which to be honest, lately, I’ve been feeling a lot of everywhere we go in this city!

Just this week I was there again, picking up this, with my little 2 year old…and that big glass of water in the picture below?

 Yep, spilled all over the floor after Ethan took a tumble while we were strolling the aisles. 3 Chapters employees came to our rescue and the only thing they were concerned about was if he was okay. The big mess to clean up first thing in the morning didn’t phase them.

The store is truly kid friendly and I SO appreciate being able to shop for boutique items without worrying the entire time. It’s just always smiles!
