When my kids were little, I did this with their toys. I would box up the stuff they'd grown tired of and stick it way up on a shelf in their closet. 6 months later, I'd pack up another box of toys and swap it for the one on the shelf. It was like Christmas all over again, they found new joy in their old friends. It also seemed to cut down on the "buy me this" syndrome.
