Our mission
At the Sputtergotch Toy Company, we believe in creating active imaginations. You will find high quality and unique playthings we would buy for our own children, not to mention great gift ideas for the young at heart.
Our Name? Well of course there is a story behind it. Picture twin toddlers with spoons in hand, discussing the benefits of homemade butterscotch pudding. Years later, they still call it Sputtergotch. And it still makes us giggle. A funny word, a smile, a treat….and the perfect name for a toy store!
