Hello families,
With Christmas around the corner, parents tend to get rid of a lot of kids toys. If you’re throwing something away or donating, please bring them to daycare! We’re looking specifically for outdoor plastic toys. Water play toys, water tables, kitchens, and tool benches that are plastic. Anything that is wood will rot. Thanks!
