A Note from Peaches
I just gave the Burlington County Head Start ( they have 4 schools for 3-5 year old children) 6 large boxes of toys and a bag of books. The have no budget for toys. Toys are only received through donations. They received one box of toys that needed batteries which were supplied; one box of toys that were still in need of batteries but could be used without them; one box of typical boy toys including hot wheels and Hess trucks; one of typical girl toys including a lot of dolls (though sadly there was not much diversity in the box) *NOTE: Peaches firmly believes that each child that looks into the face of her doll - should see a doll of her ethnicity. Also gave an entire box of stuffed animals (mostly beanie babies) and one box of assorted toy items (Lego's , coloring books, crayons, Frisbees,etc.) plus a large bag of children's books...**NOTE 2: Peaches also ensures that our children receive books - not just toys.
