The store traces its origins to August 10, 1990, when Christine Osborne and co-owner Dan Morrisey opened the first Wonder Works. Christine had worked as an Occupational Therapist and as a hospital Marketing Director after earning her degree from the Medical University of SC, and Dan served as Hospital Administrator. Dan passed away in 2007. Elizabeth "Schnookie" Darby, who grew up around the store where her mother worked and began as a salesclerk at 15, purchased the business in July 2021 and serves as Owner and Head Magic Maker. Christine leads the team with a focus on toys that develop social, mental, and physical skills, and the company supports child entrepreneurs, child musicians and singers, child authors, and children's charities. The store offers merchandise from local authors, inventors, and manufacturers.

The store sits on Long Point Road, about a third of a mile from the Mark Clark Expressway and roughly the same distance from Mount Pleasant Fire Department Station 2. The Richard L. Jones Center and SeaCoast Community Center are each about a third of a mile away, and the Jimmy Seignious Memorial Fields are about four tenths of a mile from the store.

Wonder Works has built a strong local reputation reflected in consistently high customer ratings and an established track record across a large base of customer reviews. For Mt Pleasant families, that means a toy store with more than three decades of history behind its shelves and a deep bench of specialty toys, games, and gifts to choose from.
