Well, that did not take long.  Just a week ago, Peek-A-Boo Kids shoe store closed its doors at 333 Court Street and already, the new tenant is ready to move in.  
Apparently, The Brooklyn Stategist, a "community-based, interactive board- and card-game center, cafĂ© and social club" has previously been located on Atlantic Avenue.  The center has a vast selection of different board and card games.  Genres include party games, historical games, mystery games and word games geared towards anyone over 7 years of age.  According to their web site, there are no computer or digital games of any kind.
Brooklyn Strategist will be hosting after-school clubs for all age groups.  Light refreshments and snacks for local sustainable farms will be available.
Check out the center's web site and the January calendar here.  To join a meet-up group, go here.

Peek A Boo Kids at 333 Court Street, between Union and Sackett Street, will be closing shortly.  The store is currently holding a clearance sale. 
I am certain it will be missed by many parents here in the neighborhood as it was the only children's shoe store which offered a larger selection. With so many kiddies in Carroll Gardens and surrounding neighborhood, one would think that there is a real need for such a store.
Speaking of children's shoe stores, does anyone remember Johnny's Bootery on Smith Street?  Johnny's has been gone for a while now, but the awning is still visible at 208 Smith Street.
I think both of my kids were fitted for their first pair of shoes there.
