Warrandyte Toy Library Information

The Warrandyte Toy Library is run by a committee of volunteers, serving the local community for over 30 years. We are conveniently located in the North Warrandyte Community Centre and next door to the Yarra Warra Pre-school. We have over 500 toys to choose from and regularly replenish our stock to keep the kids entertained. The Warrandyte Toy Library has toys to suit children aged 6 months to 6 years. We have a large range of indoor and outdoor toys plus puzzles, games, train sets, costumes, musical instruments, baby toys and ride-on toys. Our party pack is available to borrow free of charge to members. To provide a wide range of interesting, good quality and safe toys for children aged six months to six years, including those with special needs. To encourage parents to learn about the importance of play, and the stages of child development, by giving them easy access to appropriate information. To save families money by providing some expensive, larger items, thus offering the ability to test-drive toys before buying favourite ones. To offer the ability to change toys frequently, according to level of interest and age group. To support and be part of the network of community groups in Manningham and Nillumbik councils. Save money. Have access to thousands of dollars worth of toys from as little as $40 a year. Try before you buy. Avoid buying items that your child may not like, or may only be interested in for a short period. Children learn to share toys and develop responsibility. Contribute to the community by being part of a voluntary organisation. Make friends. Meet local families with similarly aged children. Many long-lasting friendships have started this way. Reduce your impact on the environment.
