Description:
If your child is anything like mine, they -love- getting things to open that are all theirs. From my love of thriftstores, flea markets and antique mall hunting, I've already turned my 11 month old into a plunderer. LOL She LOVES to sit with a box of goodies and go through it. One by one she takes the things out of the box, inspects them, lays them behind her and moves on to the next item. This has managed to spill over into mail. She sees me getting all these packages and opening them and she wants to get into them! So anyhow, onto the swap. Most big box stores have those $1 bins, plus there's the actual dollar stores. Go pick out 5 items that cost $1 each. Wrap each item *individually* in either tissue paper or wrapping paper. Put them in a box or padded envelope and mail it off to your partner's little one. On the outside of the package make sure you either address it to your partners little one c/o your partner OR put the swap name on the outside! This way us "big kids" won't open our little ones packages. This is partner specific! When you sign up for this swap put the following informationdown below in the comments: * Childs name * age * gender * things they like / do * things that you do NOT want them to have * snacks they can and/or can't have List of acceptable items: * age appropiate toy * crayons & coloring book * drawing / construction paper * age appropiate book * bubbles * chalk * temporary tattoos * paints * craft kit * Easter item * accessories (ex: hair bow, nail polish, necklace, etc) * stickers * snack (if you go this route, ONLY get IF listed in comments due to allergies) * puzzles If you think of something else to add to the list, let me know and I'll add it. Who is this swap open to? Anyone who has at least a 4.95, at least 5 type 3 swaps, and has a little one (child, grandchild, niece, nephew, neighbor kid you adore, etc) that you can still buy dollar store toys for. Now, this is for KIDS so please please PLEASE - NO flaking! If you do I will report you and you will be ban from -all- the swaps I run both publically and in the various groups I'm an officer in.

My little ones name is Nikki and she's an 11 month old little girl. So far she like horses/ponies, butterflies, baby dolls, bouncy balls (bigger than 3" only), any cars or trucks that do not have tiny pieces she can bite or yank off, story books with bright colored pictures and few words, bubbles, bracelets (no beads - think friendship bracelet), anything that lights up and/or moves, Easter wind-up toys, any toy animal that is about the size of the Little People animals or bigger. As far as snacks go, she loves cheese-its (the only generic brand she'll eat is Dollar General brand), vanilla creme cookies (like oreos but with vanilla cookies - NOT chocolate), vanilla wafers, and animal crackers. If there is something you are not sure about, please ask. Thank you.

This is for Skye. She's almost 12. She loves crafty things: rainbow loom, washi tapes, duct tape, fun pencils/pens/markers. Loves dragons! Likes lip gloss and nail polish, but otherwise not very girly. Wears her hair short but likes cute clips for her bangs. Favorite colors: orange, teal. Loves animal prints, especially zebra striped! Can have any snacks or candies.

Ok everyone time to go shopping for your swap partners little one! Don't forget:

each item must be individually wrapped
have either the child's name or the swap name on the OUTSIDE of the package so us big kids don't accidentally open it.

Happy Swapping! ~Marie
