Ditto, what the other said! We didn't have any clothes or anything like that, we did have some toys, such as blocks, books, legos, puzzles, board games, card games, crayons, coloring books, construction paper.... We have gotten 3 placements and ALL 3 placements had NO clothes, just what they had on. I think the best thing is to ask family and friends that have kids to see if they can donate clothes.... we got lucky w the 4 yr old boy, my dh's co-worker's grandson just grew out of clothes so she gave us a big trash bag full and a girl at my mom's work also donated some clothes for the 15 mth girl.... but of course we have bought clothes for them too! Our age range was initially 10 and under but we have since changed it to 6 and under... so it was hard at first to have so many things for such a large age range but now that we have some experience we know what we may need.....Good luck....
