Hi everyone, and in particular, those in London. I'll be in London on business the end of the month, and am under very strict orders by my 2 and a half year old son to pick up as many "In the Night Garden" toys as I can possibly bring home (he loves the show, but they don't sell the toys in Canada). So, I really have no clue of the names of stores that sell toys. If I have a handful of names, then hopefully I can find something near to where I'll be staying (which I don't know yet). I have to go to the UK a few times a year, but I've never done any shopping, so I havn't a clue of where to look. Ideally, if there was some place in Heathrow airport that sold them, I'd be set, but I don't even know that, lol.

I keep hoping that sometime a trip will align with the Aussies being in the same area - no luck yet! The city I live in was phased out of their Canadian tour last year

Thanks in advance for any store names people can pass my way!

Cheers,
Michael

I would say that your first port of call is Hamley's on Regent Street:

Have a search on their website: www.hamleys.com.  I just found 12 results for "night garden" on there.

You could also try Argos, this is a catalogue store that is in abundance all over the country.
A quick search came up with this little lot.  www.argos.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servle...=in+the+night+garden

At the top of that page is a store locator, the closest one to Heathrow is 2.39 miles away.
