Children sought to help celebrate toy shop's birthday
Activity Chest toy shop, in Market Place, will turn five on March 20 and is looking for children in the area who will also be celebrating their their fifth birthday on the same day.
Any child that is would go along to the shop to cut the cut a special cake with owners Liz Royal and Michael Warner at a special ceremony to be held after school on Friday, March 27.
They would also receive a small birthday gift for going along and helping the shop to celebrate the landmark.
Ms Royal said: "I think that this would be a really nice of celebrating our birthday. I cannot think of anyone doing this before so it would be great if any children who are five on the 20th could get in touch and celebrate with us.
"I think that it would be really memorable for us and for them."
Activity Chest started up in 2004 and aims to sell both traditional and modern toys that encourage learning.
In that time, it has become one of the most established shops in the village, and Ms Royal also served as president of the Chalfont St Peter Chamber of Commerce for a spell.
She added:"We try to avoid toys stocked by the major multiple retailers to offer a different variety and choice. and often find that parents and grandparents see toys they enjoyed playing with when they were young."
On Friday 27 and Saturday 28 March, the shop will hold a series of competitions and games in order to celebrate their birthday.
If your child is five on March 20, go along to the shop any time before 5pm on March 23 to put your name down, or call the shop on 01753 892828.
