Ideas for gifts include: electronic and board games, arts and crafts supplies, books, dolls, puzzles, sports equipment, and toys with Jewish themes and content.
While this is called a “toy” drive, please keep in mind when selecting presents that many recipients are older children and teenagers. Ideas for this age group include MP3 players, boomboxes, jewelry, watches, stationery, diaries, books, posters and sports equipment (e.g., baseball gloves, hockey sticks, footballs), etc.

Hebrew music CDs are especially appreciated for all age groups.

Please remove all price tags and, please, no used items!

Remember — this is a terrific mitzvah for your kids to participate in — they’ll love picking out the toys to give away and learn the true meaning of Chesed, at the same time!
