Toys

Taos [1] is also home to an exceptionally magical toy store, Twirl (225 Camino de la Placita, 575/751-1402, www.twirlhouse.com [2], 10 a.m.–6 p.m. daily). Tucked in a series of low-ceiling adobe rooms, it’s crammed with everything from science experiments to wooden trains to fairy costumes. Even the kiva fireplace gets a fantastical 1,001 Nights treatment, and there’s a big roster of activities on weekends.
