LARK stands for Lost Arts Revival By Kreofsky, a fitting name for a small family-oriented company dedicated to "bringing back" toys crafted of wood. Wood is a wonderful medium for a toy; warm, individual, sturdy, real, repairable, and renewable.

LARK Toys started in 1983 when Donn Kreofsky began designing and making wooden Noah's Arks and pull toys in his garage. Sarah helped with the staining and selling. Soon they had to build a small toy factory to keep up with orders from over two thousand specialty stores across the country.

Today LARK Toys is a destination point for thousands of visitors each year. The 31,500 square foot complex is an enchanted spot that you must see. We offer unusual shopping and browsing in five specialty areas all under one roof - The Magic Troll Toys, Carousel Christmas, End of the Tale Books, Moose Tracks Museum, Rocking Cafe, and the LARK Toys Carousel.

LARK customers would tell you that we are a one-in-a-million combination of specialty shopping, dreams, talent and hard work, playthings from the past, and the most beautiful carved animals they have ever seen. They will mention in particular our three special characters: KRAL the troll in the toy store rafters, Barney the clawed frog, and GIP the pot-bellied pig.

The Moose Tracks Museum is an especially poignant area for adults who can recall playing with the same toys years ago. We have collected thousands of toys from the 1900's - 1960's and they are all on display for your enjoyment. Tin toys, construction sets, board and card games, tops, licensed characters, trucks and cars, trains, books and novelties from another era spell great delight for all ages.

View the map and make the trip! LARK Toys and Carousel is a treat for families as well as a special destination for bus tours, civic and school groups, and international visitors. You don't need to save entertainment like this for a rainy day. Rain or sun, LARK's lots of fun. Don't miss the store tour!
