The holiday shopping season has already begun. Don't wait until the presents are unwrapped before having a plan for where everything is going to go! Now is the perfect time to clear out the old, gently used toys, books, clothes and shoes in your home to make room for newly gifted items. It's also the perfect time because Once Upon a Child in Danbury will give you cash on the spot that you can then use to purchase newer holiday toys/gifts for this season or next. Pretty sweet!
STEP 1: Go through your house and collect any and all toys and gear, especially those from the below Most-Wanted List!
