Child World was an American toy retailer founded in 1962. The company also operated the Children's Palace chain of toy stores after acquiring it in 1975.

At its peak, Child World operated 182 sites between its two brands and had revenues of $830 million (~$1.66 billion in 2024). However, the company ran into severe financial difficulty at the beginning of the 1990s which led to bankruptcy and eventually the 1992 liquidation of the stores.
