Customers will be able to shop at Toys ‘R’ Us through an expansive assortment online at macys.com/toysrus and in more than 400 Macy’s stores nationwide in 2022.

“As a Toys ‘R’ Us kid, I could not be more excited to bring this beloved brand that so many of our customers know and love into Macy’s online and to our stores across America,” says Nata Dvir, chief merchandising officer, Macy’s. “Our toy business grew exponentially in the past year, with many families looking to inspire their children’s imagination and create meaningful moments together. Toys ‘R’ Us is a globally recognized leader in children’s toys and our partnership allows Macy’s to significantly expand our footprint in that category, while creating more occasions for customers to shop with us across their lifestyles.”

The Toys ‘R’ Us experience online lets shoppers search for products by age, toy type, character and brand. From toy cars and dolls to STEM-inspired products, Macy’s expanded assortment of the hottest and most popular items, including products that highlight inclusivity, discovery and learning, will offer something for every child.
