Our Story
A place where stories, books, and creative play come together. A place for children to explore, parents to pause, and families to rediscover the quiet magic of reading.
The meaning
The word fairy tale has a beautiful meaning in Greek. It means comfort through words — the gentle relief a story brings to the heart.
Long before screens and notifications, stories were how we understood the world. They helped us feel brave. Curious. Seen.
We created Paramythia to bring that feeling back. A small space filled with carefully chosen books, beautiful toys, and creative tools that invite children to imagine, create, and explore.
Because childhood should be full of stories worth remembering.
Books
At Paramythia we don't believe in endless shelves. We believe in the right books. From timeless classics to new discoveries, our shelves hold stories that become part of family memories.
Toys & Creative Play
Children learn about the world by touching it. That's why you will find a small selection of toys designed not just to entertain — but to inspire. Wooden toys, creative kits, art materials and playful objects that invite curiosity and imagination.
Because play is not just play. It is the beginning of discovery.
Workshops
Sometimes a story begins on a page. Sometimes it starts with a paintbrush. We host small creative workshops for children and families — moments that turn ordinary afternoons into small adventures.
A place for families
Life moves fast. But childhood should not.
Paramythia is a space where families can slow down for a moment. Where children sit on the floor with a book. Where parents rediscover the joy of reading together.
A quiet corner in the city where imagination still has room to breathe.
