What is a Toy Library?

At a toy library you can borrow from a vast array of well-made toys that have been designed to support your child’s skill development and imagination. Toy libraries aim to support families and encourage togetherness with quality time spent playing with children.

Toy libraries do have some fundamental characteristics, they:

• Provide quality educational items for loan.
• Are inexpensive (usually an annual subscription is charged).
• Principally cater for younger children.
• Have a range of items covering all stages of growth and development.
• Provide an opportunity to meet other caregivers to share concerns, interact with others and make new friends.
• Help parents and carers learn about the ages and stages of child development.
• Usually open on set days and hours.
