Adams Kids was a children's clothing retailer, based in Paddington, London in the United Kingdom.

Until 1973, Amy Adams and her son Michael ran the company independently, when they sold it to Foster Brothers.

Further international stores were then opened in Cyprus, Greece, Republic of Ireland, Finland, Malta, India and Slovakia.

In January 1999, Sears was acquired by Philip Green, who then agreed to a management buy out of Adams Childrenswear.

111 stores closed, shedding 850 jobs, but the administrators remained hopeful that Adams would still find a buyer.

On 15 February 2009, it was announced that former owner John Shannon, who also bought the company in 2007, would be taking it out of administration.
