A cheery scene of holiday giving this morning, in the chilly sunshine: A large group of bundled-up students and teachers from the North Admiral preschool A Child Becomes marched the two blocks from the school to Seattle Fire Station 29, pulling seven wagons of toys:

The toys were for the SFD Toys for Tots drive:

After the students helped unload the toys into the bins at the station, school director Shelley Neal led everyone in song.

And to sum it all up in video:

You can drop off new, unwrapped toys at any Seattle Fire station by December 23rd, and Toys for Tots, via the US Marine Corps Reserve, will get them to local kids in need. FS 29 is at 2139 Ferry SW; also in West Seattle are FS 11 at 16th SW/SW Holden, FS 37 at 35th SW/SW Holden, temporary FS 32 on 40th SW between Edmunds and Alaska, and FS 36 at the north end of Delridge Way.

    Love the photo of the Teacher playing guitar with the group of kids walking.  Brings back fond memories of my kids preschool activities.
