Toy Reimagined & Swap Workshop
Bring your preloved toys and books along for a fun, creative experience for all ages!
At our Toy Reimagined & Swap Workshop, you’ll discover the joy of swapping toys,
decorating and refreshing pre-loved items, and giving them a new lease on life.
Swap a toy for something new to you, get creative by reimagining an old favourite,
and prepare a special gift for a child living in a remote community in NSW.
It’s an opportunity for families to enjoy hands-on creativity, share the joy of play, and
discover how small actions can make a difference to our community and the
environment.
What you’ll experience
Swap and discover: Bring a preloved toy to swap and take home something
different.
Reimagine and decorate: Get creative and give a pre-loved toy a fresh
look.
Prepare a gift with care: Help prepare a toy or book to be passed on to a
child in a remote NSW community.
Play, share and care: Enjoy a meaningful experience together while keeping
quality toys and books in circulation.
What to bring
Please bring a maximum of two preloved toys:
One toy for swapping at the workshop.
One toy to be passed on to another child.
Any surplus toys and books will be shared through our charity network, reaching
children and families in remote communities and other communities that can benefit
from these resources.
Come along, get creative and be part of giving preloved toys a new story!
