Toy shops in Delhi?

Hi - I'm combining a holiday and a business trip in a weeks weeks time - Where in Delhi can I find some toy shops - which are aimed at middle class Indian families?

Also are there any 'shopping malls' in Delhi.

Don't worry - my main reason for coming (again) to India isn't for these 'western style' delights!!

Cheers

Mike

Depends where you are staying, I guess, but last year I bought a heap of toys at a shop in Karol Bagh that bills itself as the largest toy shop in Delhi:

Toy Park, 17A/57, WEA (Opp Jainson Westend), Ajmal Khan Rd, Karol Bagh.
