Items in high demand include interactive learning toys, board games, puzzles, arts and crafts sets, musical toys, stuffed animals, activity sets, dolls, remote control cars, building blocks and other age-appropriate gifts.

Donors are encouraged to prioritize the nonprofit's Amazon Wish List, which features the items that best align with its early learning curriculum and makes giving simple.
