Little by little, kids are heading back to school around West Michigan. While parents are scrambling from store to store to find great deals on back-to-school outfits, there's a place that has brand name and gently used clothes at low prices: Once Upon a Child.

Once Upon a Child is a locally owned business that buys and sells gently used kids' apparel, equipment, toys and more. All items are priced 50 to 70 percent off retail value all year long, so shoppers can save lots of money.
