I'm tempted to point out to her that a "worldly" non-jw gave her daughter those toys out of the goodness of her heart.
After all, since worldly non-jws are so terrible, I think it only fair that she should villianize the correct person.

now to me that is just an instant classic.......geeze......oompa...give her some condoms too
I bet that is the last time you are doing that witless any favors. Forgetting to say "thank you" or being awkward is one thing. But, this is not merely a mistake or weakness--it is disrespect to call you "bad association" because you did not pioneer or go to all the boasting sessions.
Next time, donate them all to charity or to a real friend that has a use for those items.
Wow, How Rude !
You're a better woman than me, Zombie....
I would have been hard pressed not to tell her off. It doesn't make a
person bad association, if they don't pioneer !!!
Ugh... things like that drive me NUTS...

I definitely would have shamed her, you're a much better person than I am! I wasn't aware that merely sitting in the Kingdom Hall and knocking on doors was what made them Christians. I thought it was supposed to be love and charity and *that's why* they go to the Kingdom Hall and field service. Amazing, they don't even believe their own rhetoric, they're just caught up in appearances and their own hypocrisy.
This same single JW mother recently asked me to help her get into a new apartment by being a character reference. I agreed.
I'm sure you know what kind of reference to give her should the need arise again.

edited to add:
Not only did she fail to thank you, but she deliberately insulted you afterward. The halfhearted apology wasn't an apology at all - it was there only to pave the way for an insult.
How ridiculous!! You've got to pioneer now just for a simple "thank you"?
And here I was, thinking that manners was for everyone! [silly me]
Maybe you should tell her that you made a mistake - that perhaps those toys were demonized! Offer to help her burn them in the back yard. NO No NO - that would be mean to the little kid. Never mind.
"Wha ... wha ... whadda mean by 'worldly'?!!"
The term B!tch slap comes to mind. Not the left hand to the right shoulder and come accross to the face smack. I mean the slightly turn your torso drop your right knee slightly and give it all the hell you can muster smack.
