Description
Ribbitt, one of the few locally owned toy stores in Hampton Roads, closed Jan. 1. Owner Steve Brodie said his Virginia Beach store started to struggle in late 2007 after a wave of toy recalls raised concerns about imported children's products. The economic turmoil last year cut further into Ribbitt's sales and resulted in a dismal 2008 holiday season, he said.
