About Us
           Where The Kids Things' Are was opened in 1997 by owner/operator/mother-of-two Amy Carwile, with an immeasurable amount of help from her loving and supportive husband, David. Both Virginian natives have remained influential members of the community and have supported local small-business economy for the past 18 years----making this shop one of the last original mom-and-pop stores still standing in Lynchburg today.
 
Our stores mission is to offer affordable children’s clothing, toys and furniture to families on a budget. We also offer a helping hand when children are ready to move to the next size by buying your gently used kid’s items and paying cash----even offering an additional percentage in exchange for store credit. We love getting to know our customers and seeing their families grow the way ours did.
 
Hope to see you soon!

"I stop in everytime I'm in Lynchburg. My two small children love the play area and I get to shop hands-free!"

"With how fast my kids are growing, I'm thankful I can buy clothing without paying full price and I can sell the things they hardly wore."

"Love the staff! The ladies always help me find what I need!"
