Sinnefaki means little cloud in Greek. This cloud is filled with unique products for babies and children. What I love is that you will find lots of educational toys and toys that have a nostalgic memory of the past. Children can colour their own bags, make their own dinosaurs’ and bears but also learn a nice story in the making. Learning is Fun at the Sinnefaki and definitely worth the visit.
