Mark your calendars for the slimiest event of the season! On October 14th at 4 PM, we're hosting a Slime Party at San Marino Toy and Book Shoppe, and you won't want to miss it. We've teamed up with Sparklez Slimez, a Pasadena-based party slime company, to bring you an afternoon of gooey, Halloween-themed delight.

At our Slime Party, kids will have the chance to become slime scientists, mixing their own slime creations with spooky baubles and doo dads. The best part? They get to take their creepy concoctions home with them! Please note that there is a $30 fee for this event, and RSVPs are required. Hurry, as seats are limited! If we sell out, we'll consider adding more seats to accommodate everyone. Click here to RSVP for the Slime Party.
