There’s nothing we love more than shopping local, and when that shop happens to be full of books, toys, and clothing, we’re in heaven. If there’s a child in your life, you need to stop by The Children’s Hour. It’s a charming Utah shop that’s full of treasures.
In a world where big box stores take most of the market share, shopping local is even more important. Support a local business and find high-quality toys, books, and clothing when you visit The Children’s Hour.

The shop got its start in 1984 when owner Diane Etherington had a vision for a store that carried children’s books exclusively. Soon afterward, she added toys and children’s clothing to the mix, and later added on clothes for women, too.
