The CoolMom 4th Annual Holiday Toy Swap 'n' Sale is today November 12 9am to 2pm.

Terri Glaberson CoolMom Executive Director said, "After months of preparation and gathering toys from the generous West Seattle communities and beyond, we have a stellar sale planned. There are mounds of books, games, puzzles, leggos, dolls and much more! The gently used toys seem extra stellar this year. The line for the sale tends to start forming at 8:30 am in anticipation of purchasing some pre-holiday gifts. So get there early!"

All proceeds benefit CoolMom & WestSide Baby

WHERE: Fauntleroy Church, 9140 California Ave. SW (Barton & California)

The annual sale is focused on keeping things local, and reusing high quality toys for other children to enjoy.

CoolMom wants to help families reduce spending and their carbon footprint this holiday season. From Thanksgiving to New Years Day, household waste in the United States increases by more than 25%. By buying locally used toys instead of newly packaged toys purchased at several stores throughout the state or country, families can reduce their travel fuel consumption and reduce their impact on our recycling and landfill centers. Buying quality used toys also saves families money, which helps in these tough economic times.
