School House: 20% off Playmobil Feb. 27 – March 5
If you’re looking for a durable toy that kids will play with, you won’t want to miss this sale. Now through March 5t all Playmobil toys are 20% off at School House in Ashwaubenon.
There really is something for everyone when it comes to Playmobil. They have dollhouses, construction sets, knights, pony ranches, dinosaurs, magic castles, top secret agents, fairy tales, you name it. They even make a really nice nativity set and several types of advent calendars that cost way less than the similar LEGO advent calendars. If you’re looking for stocking stuffers, I know School House carries individual pieces of Playmobil for just a few dollars each.
Playmobil toys are made out of that same sturdy plastic as LEGOS, too. So they can take a lot of abuse and in most cases, even get stepped on and the stuff doesn’t bend or break often. And also like LEGO, they can be on the pricier side, but they are an awesome investment.
School House: Extra 20% off Sale Room Jan. 25 – Jan. 28
School House’s sale room often has great deals. From Friday, January 25th through January 28th, you can get an 20% OFF Sale Room products that have the barcodes X’d out. Most products are already 50% OFF.
You’ll find great teaching supplies, toys, games, Wisconsin materials and more are in the Sale Room.

School House Activity Days for January
I love School House and have shopped there since I was a wee one. Remember their old store on Oneida Street? My dad used to bring me in there when he wanted to buy teaching supplies and I wanted to add to my scratch-n-sniff sticker collection. Now I go to the store located by Shopko in Ashwaubenon to buy stuff like school supplies, toys, and bridging books for my kids to keep their skills sharp during the summer.
Here’s a rundown of days and themes for upcoming free activities at Green Bay’s School House:
