2011 Wish List

Stuffed Socks (All Sizes)

(See below for details)

Stuffed Animals (beanie baby size)

Hats and Gloves

Tied Baby Quilts (36X45 inch or bigger)

Fleece Blankets (1 1/3 yard by width of fleece)

4 ply Knitting Yarn


How to stuff your socks:

Use a new pair of white crew or tube socks

First sock contains:

Toothbrush

Soap

Shampoo

Toothpaste

Comb

Second sock contains:

Crayons

Small coloring book or notebook

Pencils

Pencil Sharpener

Pen

Small Toy (Example: rubber ball)

Small candy treat

Tie both socks together with ribbon securely and add a small stuffed animal (about Beanie baby size but doesn’t have to be a Beanie). The children treasure them and take them everywhere. These are just some ideas. We have found lots of things at dollar stores so check them out. Oriental Trading catalog is also a good resource. Toothbrushes are the only required item because they really need them. Please use things that look new if they are used. The children see what the others get especially in the boarding schools.
