Our Story

When we opened our first store, Serendipity Road in Downtown Midland, Michigan, we aimed to build a boutique that supported creativity, connection.

Since 2017, we've continued to bringing Michigan Makers into one space creating  a gift boutique that supports small business and builds economic growth in Downtown Midland and throughout Michigan.

With continued desire to build the community on November 8th, 2019 they opened Joyful Tantrum a toy store unplugged so you can plug in with those you love.

With the need for some wiggle room in the toy store to meet the customer need in 2021(and planning for the future)they started the hunt for a larger space and on May 5th, 2022 they opened Joyful Tantrum Recess at 4000 Jefferson Ave in the old Glovers building.  

It’s a joy to now to fill that space with gifts that are fun for all and create a space that will connect future youth with their community by creating memories of delight, wonder and curiosity.

    I really wish I knew about this store sooner. It’s incredibly welcoming. My 3 year old had sooo much fun playing and exploring, and I got to see what toys she was most interested in and if they were teaching her anything (they were). They have so many toys you won’t find in big box stores. Some toys they have you’ll find everywhere but this store is worth it. We have a big list for Santa to buy from moxie!

    Fun store for "kids" of all ages. Lots of fun game and toy ideas in one place. I love that there are interactive areas, so kids can try out fidgets or play in the little ball pit. We also did a sand candle party there, and it was wonderful! The people working there have always been friendly and helpful, and the store is always clean.

    This toy store is WONDERFUL!!!! It is so nice to get away from the big box stores that don’t even specialize in children’s toys, and that all have the same, limited selection. There are so many different options at this store and the toys actually help children learn. Plus, you’re supporting a small business!
