Bon Pasteur Toy and Childcare Fair

A charitable family fair in the heart of Robertsau

The Bon Pasteur Toy and Childcare Fair is an annual event highly appreciated by Strasbourg families. Organized by the Rotterdam Cultural and Social Center at the Bon Pasteur community hall, 12 boulevard Jean Sebastien Bach in Strasbourg, it is held every early February. Families come to find at low prices second-hand toys, board games, children's books, childcare items (strollers, high chairs, baby carriers), children's clothing for under 14s and maternity wear. An eco-responsible approach that promotes reuse while allowing families to equip themselves at lower cost.

An event led by local youth

The originality of this fair lies in the active participation of young people from the Rotterdam Cultural and Social Center, who run their own stall to fund part of their summer project. Throughout the day, light refreshments and drinks are offered, including cakes made by volunteers. A face painting and coloring area delights the youngest, while a games library allows children and parents alike to discover new games in a relaxed atmosphere. Entry is free, open to all ages.

Strasbourg, Alsatian and European capital

Strasbourg, capital of the Bas-Rhin and the Grand Est region, is one of Europe's major metropolises. Historic capital of Alsace, home to the European Parliament, the Council of Europe and the European Court of Human Rights, it charms with its unique blend of Alsatian traditions and international openness. Its historic center, the Grande Ile, is classified as a UNESCO World Heritage site and houses the famous Notre-Dame Cathedral. The Bon Pasteur district, located in the Robertsau area, is a residential neighborhood appreciated for its family atmosphere and dynamic community life.
