Here at the Toy Garden we are all very busy this week preparing for the big weekend ahead!Once Again the Old Fairhaven Association is hosting the Fairhaven Salmon Barbecue, sending summer off with delicious local food, music and general fun for all ages. Many Fairhaven businesses (including the Toy Garden!) will also be having sidewalk sales with all kinds of great specials and surprises. Our lovely gnomes, who are all big fans of a good barbecue, will be out and about all afternoon too!
This year we are also participating in Faber-Castell's 250th Anniversary "Dream Castle" contest. We carry many of Faber-Castell's great art supplies and are very excited to use some of their products (the twist-up gel sticks are my absolute favorite!) while building & decorating! Saturday we'll be out on the sidewalk pasting, painting and assembling our castle; kids ages 3 to 12 are invited to come down and color or draw castles from their own imagination and enter to win a Grand Prize of $500 in Faber-Castell children's art products, a year of art classes at Yong Rembrandts and a $500 Visa gift card! To get a head start on the contest, or just to check out some of the other cool entries Faber-Castell has received, anyone can visit their Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/CastleContestUSA. We're really encouraging everyone to put their wildest imagination to use and enter the contest because the prizes are awesome!
Alongside the castle-building extravaganza, we will also have all kinds of great toys on sale at our sidewalk sale. This includes a last chance to snag some discontinued items that we'll no longer be carrying at the Toy Garden so be sure to stop by!
