Si Tu Veux

Si Tu Veux is a beloved independent toy shop tucked inside the Galerie Vivienne, one of Paris's most stunning 19th-century covered shopping arcades in the 2nd arrondissement. The shop's name means 'if you want,' a perfectly apt invitation to browse its carefully curated selection of toys, games, and gifts for children. The emphasis is on quality over quantity — you'll find wooden toys, imaginative playthings, art supplies, puppets, science kits, and games that won't be found in any big-box store.

The Galerie Vivienne setting elevates the entire experience: the arcade's mosaic floors, glass ceiling, and ornate ironwork make even a simple shopping errand feel like a Paris adventure. For children, the arcade itself is exciting to explore, and finding the toy shop within it adds to the sense of discovery. The shop caters to a wide age range, from toddler-appropriate wooden toys to games and kits for older kids and tweens.

Prices reflect the quality and curation — this is not a budget toy run — but the items tend to be genuinely worth the spend, the kind of thing that lasts and becomes a favorite. With 115 reviews and a 4. 5-star rating, Si Tu Veux has earned its reputation as a Paris shopping destination for families.

It's a reliable stop for a meaningful souvenir that actually means something to your child rather than a generic Eiffel Tower keychain.
