The Melbourne Community Toy Library opened in 2001, providing a wide variety of imaginative, expressive and educational toys for all children aged 0-6 years and their families who live, work or study in the City of Melbourne for a low annual fee. We have locations in Kensington and Carlton, and are thrilled to announce our new location in Docklands.
The toy library is a not-for-profit community organisation, run by a committee made up of volunteer members who manage, set the rules of operation and resolve the day-to-day running issues.
Join us to borrow from a great range of toys, puzzles, games and costumes for your kids.
