Every toy created at Happen's Toy Lab was made from pieces and parts of old and broken, plastic or rubber toys donated by the community. We accept large and small toy donations during our open hours on Saturday and Sundays. We keep track of all of our toy donations by weight and when one of our donors gives a total of 25 pounds of toys they receive a gift certificate for a free Toy Lab t-shirt. Because our toy building activity cannot make use of wooden or fabric toys we ask that you restrict your donations to plastic and rubber toys and toy parts.
Happen's Toy Lab has begun to accept toy donations again with the following requirements.
• You must schedule your donation visit in advance.
• Donations can be dropped off at the Toy Lab between 10am & 2pm, Monday through Friday, only at your reserved time.
• Donations must be made in a closed container of some kind (Sealed box, Heavy plastic bag, etc.), containers cannot be returned.
• You can leave your donation at the entrance to Toy Lab during your scheduled donation time.
