I say “toot,” but maybe it’s more of a honk — anyway, it hardly matters at Kazoo & Co., the incredible new toy store at Denver International Airport (Concourse B, upper mezzanine level). The place is a feast for the eyes (hello, parents with a long layover and bored kids), and a great place to pick up that “little something” you promised your offspring. High quality, creative toys… definitely worth checking out.

Why am I bothering to write about this new place to spend your money? Well, Kazoo & Co. happens to be owned by one of my favorite people (and entrepreneurs) in the world, Amanda Waters. After many years of success in the cheerleading uniform business (I believe she was VP of sales), Mandy took a step back and re-evaluated.
It wasn’t long before an entrepreneur was born. Her first venture at DIA, Four Seasons Jewelry & Gifts (located just a few doors down from Kazoo & Co. in Concourse B), began as a concept designed to “celebrate the beauty of nature and allow travelers to take some of that beauty home with them.” I love her space — it’s well-designed and actually relaxing (thanks to the stone wall/water feature), and they take great care of their customers.
Anyway, I had to toot. (My six-year-old would giggle at that one.) Best of luck to you, Mandy! Your hard work and dedication to making your vision a reality are an inspiration to me. –LCS
