Here are some things the library needs these days:
--New games and puzzles:
Especially well loved by the kids are the extra large piece floor puzzles, we could use a few more! Also, smaller puzzles for young kids (30 pieces or less) and 100 piece puzzles.
-Games we'd love to have: chess, checkers, chinese checkers, connect 4, mastermind, memory, mousetrap, candyland, hi-ho cherry-o, chutes & ladders, other games that are either in Spanish or don't require words. Games we don't need (already have them): scrabble, monopoly, pictionary, guess who.
--Supplies:
-most school supplies
-printer cartridges: Kodak 10B & 10C, HP 21 & 22
-liquid white glue (like elmer's), large bottles are great
-poster board
-tissue paper
-1/2 page size notebooks (we have full page size ones, but need smaller ones for the younger kids)
-balloons
-letter size sheets for laminating machine
We are also in need of gently used clothing for our fundraising clothing bazaars. Things that sell well are light-to-medium weight clothing for babies, children, teens and small adults sizes (XS, S or M-- anything larger is generally too big for locals). Think summer or spring clothes. Sneakers, sandals, & flip-flops are also popular items. Please don't feel the need to go out and buy new clothes, pick stuff up at your local thrift store if you must, or canvas your neighbors for their used clothes-- help recycle clothing and help Hekab Be!

2012 Wish List
Many many thanks to all those who donated gifts and other goodies during the Holiday season!
Thanks to you, we are very well loaded on school supplies, but we are now low on art supplies. Things we could use include:
--Water based paints, we are almost always low on these. Liter size bottles are best, but we'll take whatever you can fit in your suitcase!
--Glitter, sequins, any of that shiny stuff that can be glued onto art projects
--Feathers, beads, pendants, fake flowers, stickers, all that good stuff
--Foam craft sheets in various colors
--Refills for glue guns (the sticks)
Art supplies that we don't need at the moment include: watercolors, crayons, colored pencils or markers, we have plenty!
