The Learning Post was the dream of an elementary principal and teacher (husband and wife) who wanted to start a business that brought the best quality and newest variety of educational products together for everyone.
The Learning Post opened in April of 1977 with a 2,000 square foot store and has continued to expand over the last 33 years. Our Urbandale location has nearly 12,000 square feet full of a great variety of books, toys, games, classroom decoratives and more.
The Ankeny location was added in 2002 to provide a convenient location for our customers to the north and east. Our customers at both locations include teachers, parents, grandparents and anyone who is interested in nurturing a child and their learning potential.
Our goal has always been to provide great products and customer service that may be difficult to find elsewhere.
We hope that you will give The Learning Post a try and contact and visit our locations.
