Kids clothing, book and toy swap

What to expect

Net Zero Champion residents are hosting a kids toys and clothes swap (0-12 years) where you can exchange your used kids clothes and toys (in good condition) for new-to-you outfits for the kids in your life.

What to bring

Clothes:

Used clothes, shoes and hats in good condition that you would be happy to wear. Please don’t bring underwear or dirty or broken/torn items.

Toys:

1. Gently used: gently used toys are preferred. Items should be in good condition, free from significant wear and tear, and with all essential parts intact.
2. Cleanliness: please clean and sanitise your toys. This includes wiping surfaces, checking for dust, and ensuring that toys are free from any dirt or grime.
3. No broken or damaged items: broken or heavily damaged toys will not be accepted.
4. Working mechanisms: toys with mechanical or electronic components should be in working order.
5. Complete Sets: bring complete sets of toys. If a toy originally came with specific accessories, pieces, or instructions, ask that these components be included for a more satisfying swapping experience.
6. Battery check: If applicable, check and replace batteries in battery-operated toys.

How does this impact Net Zero: Waste
