FamilyWorks Wonder Bags

Jordan Jordan November 24, 2014 Comments are off

Jake and Sarah fro FamilyWorks sent over this request:

As you do your holiday shopping, or even just run errands around town, consider buying some small gifts for children at FamilyWorks. Our goal is to be able to give 200 children and youth a Wonder Bag filled with toys that they select. You can help by donating new or VERY gently used gifts for these bags!

Some good ideas for gifts are:

    • Children’s books: ranging from board/baby books to young adult books
    • Small stuffed animal or puppet
    • Socks, hats, gloves: ranging from baby to teen sizes/designs
    • Play-doh, silly putty, Gak, etc.
    • Small bouncy balls
    • Kid-friendly art supplies, stickers
    • Small plastic animals
    • Kids puzzles
    • Decks of cards, card games, or small board games
    • Small Lego kits, science kits
    • Journals, colored pens
    • Lip balm, nail polish, hair ties
    • Gift cards to Bartell Drugs, Target, Fred Meyer, etc. for $10-$20

Any other ideas! Call 206-694-6727 or stop by if you’re not sure.

You can drop off items at FamilyWorks, 1501 N 45th St on Mondays 9:30-12, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays 9:30-5, or Fridays 9:30-3 by December 12.

Thank you for your help making a great holiday for all families in our community!
