Children’s clothes, toy and book swap – Willoughby

Ready to refresh your child’s wardrobe, books or toy collection this summer?

Join us for a fun and sustainable swap of baby and kids’ items.
Bring quality clothes, books and toys suitable for children aged 0 to 8 years, and swap them for new-to-you treasures.

How it works

1. Donation drop-off: 1pm to 1:30pm

Please arrive during this time so items can be sorted and the swap can run smoothly. To keep things fair, entry to the swap will be first in, best dressed.

2. Tokens

Bring up to 6 clothing items AND 6 books or toys (12 items total).

You will receive one token per accepted item.

Tokens can be exchanged for items during the swap.

You may bring more than 12 items, but a maximum of 12 tokens will be issued per person.

3. Swap time: 1:30pm to 2:30pm

Please note: items available to swap will depend entirely on what other participants bring. All items must be suitable for children aged 0 to 8 years.
