This past week with my work we did a volunteer afternoon at the San Jose toys for tots drop off location at the joint Navy/Marine base, it was a fun afternoon and great to see things full circle!
Of note for next year, there were LOTS of toys for the 3-5 year olds, many for the 6-9 year olds but the age ranges that was the hardest to pack for was the 0-3, 10-12 and the 13-15 as there weren’t many donations for these age ranges.. perhaps we can keep that in mind for next years donations! To fill the most toy requests possible we were trying to stretch some of the toys for the mid age ranges lower and higher, respectively.
Also of note, there were a few cool remote control Jeeps we came across so I was sure to spread them equally across the boys and girls sections.
