As part of our 5th grade Exploratory classes this year, these students met in the library on Friday mornings from Aug.-Dec. to design, draft patterns, and create toys by hand!
The Toy Society is a world-wide collective of toy makers – of varying skill levels– who make toys and leave them as gifts for perfect strangers.
When a member leaves a toy gift it’s called a “Toy Drop” and is posted on The Toy Society's website.
Finders are invited, but not expected, to let The Toy Society know they have found a toy, and these notes are also posted on the site. But it’s not expected to hear back from finders; The Toy Society is about giving someone something and expecting absolutely nothing in return, which is a real rarity these days!
We are so proud of the imaginative toys our students were able to create and prouder still that they were happy to let them go in hopes that they would brighten the day of a stranger!
To watch for "Finders" stories, or to learn how you can become a member of The Toy Society, head to the website: http://www.thetoysociety.blogspot.com
