Hi Everyone! I'm a parent of two (one 4-year old and one 2-year old), and I've noticed that a lot of parents find it annoying to have to continually switch out toys for kids as they get older. I'm curious how a toy-subscription service would do in Shanghai. Would any of you subscribe instead of buy, like a Netflix for toys? Of course, the toys would be imported, properly sanitized, and delivered to your door. As an expat I don't want to accumulate too much stuff here before I move back. Any thoughts? Thanks!

Hi there!
There was a toy subscription service here a few years back started by some expat moms, but it no longer exists.(as far as I could tell) You can google around- there was one or two articles written about it when it first started.
For us, we just pass them family to family... which works when you have a variety of ages in your community. Or just donate and buy toys at APM sales...
great idea though- cheers
