Our Story
Once upon a time, an itty-bitty kids’ store was born. You may know its parent, Tigertree, an eclectic shop in the Short North famous for its carefully curated blend of novelty and nostalgia. Cub Shrub is just like that, only for kids.

We were so excited to order such adorable clothes for a dear friend and their new baby girl. Not only was the inventory amazing, but in these strange times the owner delivered the order herself! What an amazing experience! Can’t wait to get to shop for another new baby or toddler...such fun inventory!
What a great pair of kids sunnies! My boys are 3.5 and 2.5 and love to wear them.
I sent these to my students in the mail during COVID. It was the perfect silly, pick-me-up.
The plastic drumstick made this set very accessible to my 14 month old. She loves it and will grow into it even more. The stacking nature for easy storage is a definite plus as well.
My 4 year old nephew came to town, so I decided to buy this bubble kit, as he loves bubbles. It turned out to be fun for the entire family (60 years old to 4). The solution makes a lot of bubble mixture. Totally worth it! Highly recommend!
These are the best onsies. Magnetic Me’s are a game changer. Super cute and functional. Had these for my babies and now buy them for all my family and friends. The perfect gift!
Due to the pandemic, we weren't able to celebrate my 3-year-old niece's birthday. We opened presents over Zoom, and this book was a big hit! It went a long way to make her day special and the music is very high quality. Her parents didn't mind a noisy book! Many thanks!
I LOVE these masks! I ordered two- one for myself and one for my 11 year old kiddo. They are adorable and quite literally make us happy. They are super soft and fit securely on our faces. Thanks, guys!
This is our 3rd pair of Natives, we absolutely love them!
My 5 month old loves these. We put them on his bumbo tray and he's instantly entertained. They really do stay put, too!
The product is amazing, shipping a gift was super simple, and it arrived in a very timely manner. My friend loved the sweet pattern for her baby boy due in September!
Bought this book online on a whim and it is already a family favorite! You won’t regret adding this to your collection.
These shorts are a perfect summer staple for my girl.
My 3 and 5 year olds loved this so much we bought more! It kept them busy and entertained and the finished product is just lovely to look at!
Got these chalk crayons for our grandchildren ages 5 and 3. They love them.
Jellycats are the softest, most adorable stuffies. Both kids (<4) love it!
Easy for my kiddo to take on and off independently, very wearable and durable, and they wipe clean!
My daughter loves it for her baby and the baby looks
darling in it! Grandma made a wise purchase!
I ordered Boon bath toys for my friends' boys which they absolutely loved. Cub Shrub wrapped them and included a hand written card (for an extra fee) which was such a nice touch. Their pick up process was very easy. I just called when I was on my way and they left my bag outside their back door hanging on a bamboo plant. They adhere to all safety measures and clearly value their employees and their customers. This is a business to support!
These were a huge hit! They glow only when they’re under water. Bright enough shine beams of color light through the bath.
My friend loved this for her baby’s nursery! She has a grey bunny print on the wall above the changing table, so I knew this bunny was perfect!
We had so, so much fun with these bubbles!! They are big, beautiful, and last for well over an hour of fun. Cannot recommend enough!!
Purchased for a 6 year old and she was so excited. She loves all things animal print so this was perfect!
Hours of enjoyment for kids and adults! Best gift ever!
Amazing service, beautiful merchandise! Contact-free pickup was so easy, and Molly And Niki were wonderful to shop with!
Got this headband as a gift from a friend and we LOVE it!! So stretchy and soft for her head, doesn’t leave indents like others have. I want it in every color now!
These are so much fun! My two-year-old has a blast chasing and popping the giant bubbles — almost as much fun as I have making them.
