Curious Turtle

The Curious Turtle is a thoughtfully curated children’s boutique bookstore located in historic downtown Jefferson City, Missouri. We specialize in high-quality children's literature, educational toys, sustainable family games, and timeless classics for all ages.

Our product collection is guided by our core values: curiosity, quality, and connection. As a family-run business, we understand the importance of materials that inspire learning, foster imagination, and stand the test of time. Every item on our shelves—from books to board games to sensory toys—is carefully selected to align with those principles.
