The Buffalo Fathers Group held a toy gun exchange at the Delavan Grider Community Center Friday night.

The idea is for children to turn in toy guns for something non-violent, like basketballs, dolls, or remote-controlled cars.

Organizers at the event say children have to be educated about gun violence at a young age.

During the event, the toy guns were placed in a casket as a way to symbolize the deaths caused by gun violence.
