Cockburn Community Toy Swap
Is your home full of toys your kids have outgrown or no longer play with? Bring them along to our Cockburn Community Toy Swap at the Teddy Bears Picnic next week! With over 27 million toys ending up in landfill each year, this is a fantastic way for our community to reduce waste and give pre-loved toys a new lease of life.
Here’s how the Toy Swap works:
- Bring along a toy or toys in good condition to the designated Toy Swap area
- Exchange your toy for something else your kids will love – absolutely free!
- For safety reasons, we cannot accept button battery toys, bicycles with chains, or baby equipment such as car seats, baby chairs and baby bottles – but baby toys are fine.
Food and Drinks
If all the fun and games makes you hungry, you’ll also find a wide range of food trucks on site. These include:
- Catering West
- The Food Bazaar
- The Milky Monster
- El Aleman Loco
- Juice Station
- Manekineko
- Just Chillin
- Unicone
- The Rolling Bean
