Mom’s Guide to Cedar Rapids Kids Consignment Stores

Do you have a lot of baby gear, extra kids’ clothes, or tossed aside toys laying around your house?

Does your little one need some summer clothes, but you don’t want to pay retail prices?

You have probably thought about selling them through a Facebook group or Craigslist. While both are ways to shop or get your things sold, it can be risky to meet someone you don’t know. The Cedar Rapids area has a few consignment shops that are simply for children’s clothing, toys, and gear. These places are great for selling your used things or picking up something your child needs! To make it easy, here’s a handy guide to Cedar Rapids Kids Consignment Stores! {Click on the business name to go straight to their website!}
