Toy Libraries are where children can borrow a wide range of developmental toys. The schemes are usually self-financing so there is a small registration fee. Parents and carers are encouraged to take part managing the toy libraries.
Play is an essential part of child development and regular borrowing of the right toys can help with the development of new skills
