I`ve had lots of families over the years donate toys and have never had an issue at all. I had one little guy think it was so amazing that these toys were just like the ones he used to have and how cool it was to be able to play with toys `just like his old ones` at daycare lol It was a whole day event seeing this kid in absolute amazement and it was like Xmas. I asked his mum via email the next day if he had asked for those toys when he had got home and she said no. She was equally as amused at his reaction. You can imagine how much I wanted to laugh when he said I have one just like that at home lol Mum said she had put them away months before intending to donate to charity shop.
