The idea behind an activity bag is that you have a simple, self-explanatory activity ready to go in a minute, in the car, at the doctor's office, etc. to help keep your toddler busy and entertained.
The concept behind an activity bag SWAP is that you get together with a group of moms, each one assigned to a different activity. You make multiples of the same activity, which helps cut down on your prep time and cost, and then you get together and swap them, going home with a great variety of activity bags for your child.
