Toy shops in Paris

We decided to check out toy shops and have only made it to two so far.

One being Jouie Club, which is a series of shops in an arcade, with a huge range of toys.
3-5 Blvd des Italiens
Metro Richelieu Droit, right next to the metro stop.

The other was the oh, so pricey, but absolutely charming Au Nain Bleu. Beautiful dolls, hand crafted tableux, costumes (lots of princess action happening in Paris). We drooled at Nain Bleu, but actually found some of the same stuff much cheaper at Jouie.
5 Blvd Malesherbes
Metro Madeline, also on the same circular line as the Metro, so relatively easy to find.

We were surprised to find out that letoyvan.com is actually an English company and that Lion Touch, which we could have sworn was English is actually Scandinavian.
