Event Schedule
10.30am – 11am: Check in your 1-5 items (volunteers will sort and display them)
10.30am – 12pm: Children’s activities (to be announced)
11am – 12pm: Swap opens (browsing begins once the host officially opens the swap)
Swap Guidelines:
- What to bring: Bring 1-5 clean, gently used children’s toys, clothes (all sizes), or books you’d proudly pass on. Think puzzles, picture books, board games, dress-ups, dolls, action figures, and more!
- Condition matters: Items should appear new and have no signs of flaws. They must be free from stains, tears, missing pieces, or heavy wear. Only bring things you’d be happy to receive.
- Items not accepted: No broken toys, heavily worn clothes, used underwear, or damaged books.
- Fairness & fun: Everyone is welcome, but please take only what you need so there’s enough for all. Let’s make this a joyful, waste-free event for families and kids alike!
