Thakkar Toys

Thakkar Toys is over at No. 43, Jaldhara Raw House, which is near Meera Darwaza. Our shop is basically a room full of toys of all kinds. We have boxes of dolls, plastic cars, and board games stacked up everywhere. It’s a small space, so things can get a bit messy, especially when children come in and start pointing at everything. We aren't a big chain store with bright lights and uniforms. It’s just a local place where parents come to pick up a little something for their kids. Living and working near Meera Darwaza means we see a lot of the same faces every day. We’ve been running this for a while now, and we’ve seen some of the kids who used to buy marbles from us grow up and start bringing their own children here. It’s a simple life. We spend the mornings dusting off the boxes and checking what needs to be reordered. Sometimes the delivery trucks have a hard time finding the Raw House, so we end up waiting out on the street for them. We don't have any fancy mission statements or anything. We just sell toys because that’s what we do. It’s a practical business. We keep the prices where they should be and try to keep a good variety of things on the shelves so there is always something different to look at.
