Independent Toy Store · Hummelstown, PA
Toys On The Square is a longtime family-owned specialty toy store right on Hummelstown's Main Street, PA, with a hand-picked mix of toys, games, and gifts you won't find at a big-box store, about 25 minutes south of our shop.
Our take Hummelstown sits between Hershey and Harrisburg, so Toys On The Square is an easy pull-off when you're already in the area — and it's only about 25 minutes south of our shop at I-81 Exit 80 if you need us before or after.
This is the kind of store that reminds you what a toy shop used to feel like. Toys On The Square has been family-owned for more than 35 years, and it shows in the selection, which is curated rather than crammed onto shelves by an algorithm. You'll find classic toys, games, puzzles, and gifts chosen by people who actually know the difference between a fad and something worth keeping. It sits in a roomy storefront at 17 W Main Street in the heart of Hummelstown's borough, just a few miles from Hersheypark.
We like pointing visiting families here because it's a real local stop, not a souvenir counter. Out-of-town parents wrapping up a Hershey trip can grab something to bring home that isn't a branded keychain, and local folks get to shop somewhere that's been part of the community for decades. The store carries items across a wide age range, so it's worth a browse whether you're hunting for a toddler gift or a game for the teenagers. It's an easy place to lose track of time once you're inside.
Generally open Monday through Saturday 9:30 AM to 6:00 PM and Sunday 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM as of our last check, with extended hours around the holidays. Hours can change, so call ahead or confirm current hours before a special trip.
