Donations of new or like-new baby gear, including equipment, toys, and clothing, are now being accepted at the Children's Museum of the East End in Bridgehampton for an upcoming swap-n-shop event.

"New and expectant parents are invited to join us and stock up on new and gently used infant and toddler items," the museum said in an announcement.

The swap event is Saturday from 10 a.m. to noon at the museum at 376 Bridgehampton-Sag Harbor Turnpike. Early-childhood educators will also be on hand to offer information to new and expectant parents.
