            January 28, 1995 Balance Sheet was restated in this 10Q to reflect
            the discontinued operation. 

            Due to the seasonal nature of the Company's business, results for
            the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results
            to be expected for the fiscal year.

NOTE 2.     All highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or
            less are considered to be cash equivalents; investments with
            maturities between three and twelve months are considered to be
            short-term investments.  These investments are stated at cost which
            approximates market.  

NOTE 3.     Income tax provisions are based on estimated annual effective tax
            rates. The loss from continuing operations for the periods ended
            October 28, 1995 provides no current tax benefit.  The effective
            income tax rate used for the thirty-nine week period ended October
            29, 1994 was approximately 40%. Income tax expense provided in
            discontinued operations for the thirty-nine week period ended
            October 28, 1995 represents the Company's requirement for a 100%
            valuation allowance for the net deferred tax assets pursuant to
            SFAS 109.                                      

NOTE 4.     On August 30, 1995 the Company adopted a formal plan to discontinue
            its wholesale business segment.  The plan provides for the sale of
            two of the Company's distribution centers and the disposition
            through sale or liquidation of substantially all of the operating
            assets.

            The operations and net assets of the wholesale business segment are
            being accounted for as a discontinued operation, and accordingly,
            its operating results and net assets are reported in this manner
            in all periods presented in the accompanying consolidated financial
            statements.  Revenues from such operations were $8.7 million and
            $31.2 million for the thirteen weeks ended October 28, 1995 and
            October 29, 1994, respectively and $50.6 million and $80.7 million
            for the corresponding thirty-nine week periods, respectively.

                          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                       FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

                    Thirteen Weeks Ended October 28, 1995 Compared with
                           Thirteen Weeks Ended October 29, 1994

Continuing Operations

Net sales increased 49.7% to $6.3 million for the thirteen week period ended
October 28, 1995 from $4.2 million in the comparable period in the prior
year.  Noodle Kidoodle sales increased $4.1 million to $5.5 million in the
period ended October 28, 1995 from $1.4 million in the comparable period in
the prior year, primarily due to the operation of fifteen Noodle Kidoodle
stores during the period ended October 28, 1995 compared to three stores in
the comparable period in the prior year.  Other retail sales, which include
the Playworld and Toy Park stores, decreased $2.0 million to $.8 million in
the period ended October 28, 1995 from $2.8 million in the comparable period
in the prior year, primarily due to the operation of four stores in the
period ended October 28, 1995 compared to ten stores in the comparable period
in the prior year.

Gross profits, which is derived from net sales, less the cost of merchandise
sold, which includes buying and warehousing costs, increased $.8 million to
$2.2 million in the period ended October 28, 1995 from $1.4 million in the
comparable period in the prior year.  Gross margin increased to 34.4% in the
period ended October 28, 1995 from 32.6% in the comparable period in the
prior year.  The increase results primarily from higher gross margin in the
other retail stores.  Gross margin at Noodle Kidoodle decreased to 32.8% in
the period ended October 28, 1995 from 34.8% in the comparable period in the
prior year, primarily due to higher warehousing costs resulting from
operating its own warehouse in the current period where it shared a warehouse
with the discontinued wholesale business in the comparable period in the
prior year. Gross margins in other retail stores increased to 45.8% in the
period ended October 28, 1995 from 31.4% in the comparable period in the
prior year primarily due to a lower level of inventory shortage and to a
greater mix of higher margin merchandise sold.

Selling and administrative expenses excluding restructuring costs increased
$2.5 million to $4.9 million in the period ended October 28, 1995 from $2.4
million in the comparable period in the prior year, primarily attributable
to changes in the store base.  Selling and administrative expenses at Noodle
Kidoodle increased $3.0 million to $3.9 million in the period ended October
28, 1995 from $.9 million in the comparable period of the prior year,
primarily due to higher direct store expenses which increased $1.8 million
and advertising expenses which  increased $.7 million with the balance
attributable to higher home office expenses. Selling and administrative
expenses in the other retail stores decreased $.6 million to $.3 million as
a result of the closing of six stores at the end of the prior fiscal year. 
Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased
to 77.2% in the period ended October 28, 1995 from 57.0% in the comparable
period in the prior year. Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage
of net sales at Noodle Kidoodle increased to 70.6% in the period ended
October 28, 1995 from 63.5% in the comparable period in the prior year.  The
increase was primarily due to higher advertising costs which were 15.6% in
the period ended October 28, 1995 and 8.0% in the comparable period of the
prior year resulting from increases in grand opening advertising associated
with seven new stores in the period ended October 28, 1995 compared to two
new stores in the comparable period of the prior year.

<PAGE>

Restructuring costs were $.5 million in the period ended October 28, 1995.
These expenses were primarily due to an increase of one store to the
provision, which was initially established in the second quarter of fiscal
1995, to recognize costs for severance, lease liabilities, writeoffs of fixed
assets and inventory liquidation costs associated with the decision to close
the Playworld stores.

Operating loss increased $2.2 million to $3.2 million in the period ended
October 28, 1995 from $1.0 million in the comparable period in the prior
year.  Excluding restructuring costs, the operating loss would have been $2.7
million for the period ended October 28, 1995 compared to $1.0 million in the
comparable period in the prior year. 

Interest income net of interest expense increased to $219,000 for the period
ended October 28, 1995 from $68,000 in the comparable period in the prior
year, primarily due to higher average cash and cash equivalent balances as
well as higher investment rates.

Net loss from continuing operations increased $2.4 million to $3.0 million
($.55 per share) in the period ended October 28, 1995 from $.6 million ($.11
per share) in the comparable period in the prior year.  The net loss for the
period ended October 28, 1995 included no tax benefit while the comparable
period in the prior year included a tax benefit of $.4 million ($.07 per
share).


Discontinued Operations

Net sales decreased $22.5 million to $8.7 million in the period ended October
28, 1995 from $31.2 million in the comparable period in the prior year,
primarily due to the decision on August 30, 1995 to dispose of the wholesale
operation.

Net income from discontinued operations was $.3 million ($.07 per share) in
the period ended October 29, 1994.

                  Compared with Thirty-Nine Weeks Ended October 29, 1994


Continuing operations

Net sales increased 12.2% to $13.5 million for the thirty-nine week period
ended October 28, 1995 from $12.0 million in the comparable period in the
prior year.  Noodle Kidoodle sales increased $8.5 million to $11.0 million
for the thirty-nine week period ended October 28, 1995 from $2.5 million in
the comparable period in the prior year, primarily due to the operation of
fifteen Noodle Kidoodle stores during the period ended October 28, 1995
compared to three stores in the comparable period in the prior year.  Other
retail sales decreased 74.0% to $2.5 million for the thirty-nine week period
ended October 28, 1995 from $9.5 million in the comparable period in the
prior year primarily due to the operation of two Playworld and two Toy Park
stores in the period ended October 28, 1995 compared to a total of ten stores
in the comparable period in the prior year.

Gross profit, which is derived from net sales, less the cost of merchandise
sold, which includes buying and warehousing costs, increased 23.4% to $4.7
million for the period ended October 28, 1995 from $3.8 million in the
comparable period in the prior year.  Overall gross margins increased to
35.0% in the period ended October 28, 1995 from 31.8% in the comparable
period in the prior year.  The increase results from an increase in sales at
Noodle Kidoodle, which carries products with higher margin than those carried
by Playworld stores.  Gross margins at Noodle Kidoodle increased to 34.0% in
the current period from 33.6% in the comparable period in the prior year,
primarily as a result of decreased buying and warehousing costs, partially
offset by increased cost of merchandise.  Gross margins for the other retail
stores increased to 39.2% in the current period from 31.3% in the comparable
period in the prior year primarily due to a greater mix of higher margin
merchandise sold.

Selling and administrative expenses excluding restructuring costs increased
52.3% to $10.6 million in the period ended October 28, 1995 from $6.9 million
in the comparable period in the prior year, primarily as a result of changes
in the store base.  Selling and administrative expenses at Noodle Kidoodle
increased to $7.6 million in the current period from $1.7 million in the
comparable period in the prior year primarily as a result of higher direct
store expenses, which increased by $3.7 million, higher advertising expenses,
which increased by $1.1 million, and higher home office expenses.  This
increase was offset by a decrease in selling and administrative expenses for
the other retail stores to $1.2 million in the current period from $3.5
million in the comparable period in the prior year, principally attributable
to a decrease in direct store expenses as a result of closing of the six
Playworld stores at the end of the prior fiscal year.  Selling and
administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 78.2% for
the period ended October 28, 1995 from 57.6% for the period ended October 29,
1994, primarily attributable to greater mix of the Noodle Kidoodle stores
which have higher operating costs.  Noodle Kidoodle selling and
administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 69.1% in
the period ended October 28, 1995 from 66.8% in the comparable period in the
prior year, primarily due to increases in direct store and advertising
expenses, partially offset by lower home office expenses.  Other retail
selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased
to 47.9% in the period ended October 28, 1995 from 37.1% in the comparable
period of the prior year primarily due to lower levels of net sales.

Restructuring costs related to the closing of the other retail stores were
$.5 million in the period ended October 28, 1995 compared to $3.5 million in
the comparable period in the prior year.

Operating loss decreased to $6.3 million for the period ended October 28,
1995 from $6.6 million in the comparable period in the prior year.  Excluding
restructuring charges, the operating loss would have been $5.8 million for
the period ended October 28, 1995 compared to $3.1 million in the comparable
period in the prior year.

Interest income net of interest expense increased 93.0% to $0.5 million in
the period ended October 28, 1995 from $0.2 million in the comparable period
in the prior year.  Average cash and cash equivalent balances were $11.0
million and $6.9 million for the periods ended October 28, 1995 and October
29, 1994, respectively.  Investment rates were also higher in the current
period.

Net loss from continuing operations was $5.9 million ($1.11 per share) in the
period ended October 28, 1995 compared to $3.8 million ($.73 per share) in
the comparable period in the prior year.  The net loss for the period ended
October 28, 1995 included no tax benefit while the comparable period of the
prior year included a tax benefit of $2.5 million ($.49 per share).  At
October 28, 1995, the Company had accumulated $13.5 million of net operating
loss carryforwards.


Discontinued operations

Net sales decreased 37.3% to $50.6 million in the period ended October 28,
1995 from $80.7 in the comparable period in the prior year.  This decrease
resulted primarily from discontinuance of the wholesale business, effective
August 30, 1995.

Provision for discontinued operations represents a  loss of $7.1 million
related to the disposal of the wholesale business, including the estimated
losses through the disposal period, the anticipated sale of two of the
Company's distribution centers and income tax expense of $1.6 million.

Net income (loss) from discontinued operations was ($9.1) million ($1.71 per
share) in the period ended October 28, 1995, including the $7.1 million
($1.35 per share) net charge for discontinued operations, as compared to net
income of $22,000 in the comparable period of the prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the thirty-nine week period ended October 28, 1995 the Company's cash
and cash equivalent balances decreased $4.4 million to $6.5 million from
$10.9 million at the beginning of the period.  Cash and cash equivalents of
$7.0 million were used for operating activities of the continuing operations
including an operating loss before non-cash expenses of $4.7 million and
increases in non-cash working capital accounts of $2.3 million, primarily due
to the increase in inventory required for new stores. Cash and cash
equivalents of $9.4 million were provided by operating activities of the
discontinued operations including an operating loss before non-cash expenses
of $8.2 million and decreases in non-cash working capital accounts of $17.6
million, primarily due to lower inventory and accounts receivable relating
to the dissolution of the wholesale operation. Cash and cash equivalents used
in investing activities were $7.2 million, primarily for property additions
in the continuing operations. Financing activities provided cash and cash
equivalents of $.5 million, primarily due to the exercise of employee
options.

During the thirty-nine week period ended October 29, 1994 the company's cash
and cash equivalent balances decreased $.2 million to $5.6 million from $5.8
million at the beginning of the period. Cash and cash equivalent balances of
$4.7 million were used for operating activities of the continuing operations
including operating income before non-cash expenses of $.1 million offset by
increases in non-cash working capital accounts of $4.8 million, primarily due
to higher inventory levels including requirements for new stores. Cash and
cash equivalents of $5.8 million were provided by operating activities of
discontinued operations including operating income before non-cash expenses
of $.7 million and decreases in non-cash working capital accounts of $5.1
million, primarily due to decreases in inventory and accounts receivable.
Cash and cash equivalents used in investing activities were $1.2 million,
primarily for property additions in the continuing operations of $1.9 million
and for discontinued operations of $.9 million, partially offset by proceeds
from sale of securities of $1.0 million.

The Company has in place a bank line of credit secured by certain assets of
its discontinued wholesale business segment with a maximum borrowing
availability of $12.5 million which expires on June 30, 1996. Based on an
asset based formula set by the bank, availability at October 28, 1995 was
$5.0 million. As a result of the discontinuation of the wholesale business
segment, this future availability will decrease.  The Company intends in the
near future to arrange for a new bank facility for its continuing retail
operations.

As the Company expands its Noodle Kidoodle operations, it will continue to
require cash. The Company has to date handled the expansion of its Noodle
Kidoodle operation from cash flows from discontinued operations and internal
cash balances. As the expansion continues, the Company will require
externally generated funds which may include sale of equity, equity related
or debt securities as well as future bank facilities.

The Company estimates that capital expenditures during fiscal 1996 will be
approximately $8.5 million, of which $7.1 million has already been spent for
the thirty-nine week period ended October 28, 1995, and will be used
primarily to open new stores.  The Company anticipates that capital
expenditures in fiscal 1997 will be approximately $11.0 million, primarily
to finance approximately twenty new store openings, at an average cost of 
approximately $.5 million per store and $1.0 million to upgrade its MIS 

                                          - 11 -
<PAGE>

software capabilities. In addition to capital expenditure requirements, new
stores require a working capital investment of approximately $.4 million per
store, primarily for inventory, a large portion of which is financed by
vendor trade credit. The Company has available net operating loss
carryforwards of approximately $13.5 million for income tax purposes.


Quarterly fluctuations in results and seasonality

The timing of new store openings and related pre-opening expenses and the
amount of revenue contributed by new and existing stores have caused, and are
expected to cause in the future, the Company's quarterly results of
operations to fluctuate.  In addition, the Company's operations are highly
seasonal, a significant portion of a typical store's revenues is generated
during the Company's fourth fiscal quarter, which coincides with the
Christmas selling season.  The Company does not expect to generate positive
operating income during the first three fiscal quarters for the foreseeable
future.


Impact of inflation

The impact of inflation on the Company's results  of operations has not been
significant.  The Company attempts to pass on increased costs by increasing
product prices over time.
