My Daughter and I went on a toy hunt today at one of our local goodwill stores and we paid a whooping $3.49 for all this stuff woohoo

Life is good when you are the chosen one. Except of course when you get barfed on.

Yes and what fun we had shopping too! Now just to give Echo some time to look at the new toys to decide they are going to be fun.. I am hoping to use the one with the big blue red yellow and green pegs to help teach him the colors... Something only us bird people would only understand...

I've not ever been to one but I hear that those thrift shops have some good findings. All of that for $3.49... The gas would be worth finding one.

Great finds! No need to remind you to wash them thoroughly. That one little rattle troubles me a bit. It may have undesirable stuff inside to make it rattle. Especially if it's made in China, I might even toss that one.

OH yes they were all soaked in bleach for about 15 minutes then scrubbed thoroughly. Can't be to careful who knows where they came from. I always scrub new toys before giving them to Echo regardless of where I got them.. I had not thought of that with the rattle. Thanks for the heads up..
