Birthday Bins

Let us help make your child's birthday wishes come true!

Our in-store Birthday Bins were designed just for kids. Think of them as a hands-on gift registry where we set aside all of the items your child has selected in a special bin. Make shopping easy for party guests, friends & family with a bin full of items in a variety of price-points that your child has pre-selected! Plus, eliminate duplicate gifts!

How it Works:

Come to Franklin's Toys (Severna Park or Annapolis), seven to ten days before your child's birthday PARTY. Your child will be assigned an empty bin which they can then fill with items from around the store. Their name will be attached, as well as added to our special Birthday Board sign located at the store entrance. Notify party guests, friends & family that your child has a birthday bin with us. Staff members will be happy to assist party-goers with finding the right bin, and as always, we are delighted to offer complimentary gift-wrapping.

Items in Birthday Bins will remain for two days following the PARTY date, after which they will be returned to the sales floor.

Out-of-town friends & family can join in the birthday fun as well! Just tell them to call the store where your child filled out a Birthday Bin. We will be happy to help them choose something special from the bin and take care of their purchase right over the phone! Then, you can pick it up for them.


If you would like to make an online wish list, you can do that too!
