Where to find Once Upon A Child
What customers say
I have been waiting for this store to come to Traverse City for ages. I shopped at Once Upon for all of my kids when we lived in Charleston. This stores selection is huge. I have a 3 year old girl and a 6 year old boy and I found tons of outfits for them both. I even found shoes for my 6 year old who is a skinny giant.
Love shopping here! Makes so much sense to buy used since babies grow so fast. Found great name brand items from Patagonia, Lovevery, and City Jogger. I think prices are fair. Can find great deals and items are in good condition. They do a great job stocking the place.
Hands down, the BEST children's resale shop in the area. I love supporting local businesses and with how quickly my kids change interests and outgrow clothing, it makes sense to purchase gently used items. They don't just purchase anything - everything I have bought has been clean and looks new.
We went there looking for sandals for my son. They had a wide range of shoes of every size so it was easy to find a pair he liked that fit. I can always find name brands in good shape there. The staff was friendly and very accommodating to my talkative 5 year old as well.
