Our site, Your Turn, is a toy exchange website. Imagine you're middle aged man (or woman, depending) whose daughter, Susie, left for college a few months before. Overcoming some sentimental attachments, you decide that it's finally time to give away Susie's old dolls and trading cardshas an upcoming birthday. Susie has grown out of a lot of her old dolls and trading cards, so now they're wasting storage space. You decide to donate the unused toys and want to find something nice for Susie's birthday.

We'll provide you with a couple tasks to try to accomplish, but feel free to explore the space. We encourage you to talk aloud as you navigate the site, especially if you find something confusing or peculiar. And don't worry about trying to find "the right way" to do things. We are testing our site, not you, so any troubles reflect a flaw in our design. Your test results will be kept confidential. Feel free to stop at any time.
