The Alexandra Park Toy Bin is a shared community resource designed to make the park more fun for everyone. Please help us keep it safe, clean, and enjoyable by following these simple guidelines:

✅ How to Use the Toy Bin

• Share and return: Toys are for everyone—please return them to the bin after use

• Keep it tidy: Place all toys inside the bin and close the lid securely

• Be respectful: Treat toys and the space with care so others can enjoy them

🚫 What NOT to Do

• Do not leave toys outside the bin (in the grass, sand, or around equipment)

• Do not overfill the bin or leave oversized items that don’t fit inside

• Do not leave broken or damaged toys in the bin

Items left outside the bin may be removed or damaged during park maintenance.

🧩 What Can Go in the Bin

Only include toys that are:

• Safe for shared, public use

• Suitable for outdoor play

• Durable and weather-resistant

⚠️ What Should NOT Go in the Bin

For safety reasons, please do not include:

• Toys with small parts (choking hazards)

• Indoor or cloth-based toys (not weather-resistant)

• Items that are hard to see in grass or sand

• Any hazardous or unsafe materials

Non-compliant items will be removed by volunteers or City staff. [Alexandra...ding DRAFT | PDF]

🧹 Helping Keep It Safe

This is a community-led initiative, and we all play a role:

• If you notice broken or unsafe items, please remove and dispose of them

• Help keep the bin organized when you visit

• Encourage others to follow the guidelines

City staff may also inspect the area and remove hazards if needed. [Alexandra...ding DRAFT | PDF]

The toy bin works best when everyone participates. By following these guidelines, you’re helping create a fun, welcoming park for all families in our neighbourhood.
