Development through creative play is our mission. Ensuring access for all, reducing landfill and the burden of expense on families buying new toys.
The Caulfield Community Toy Library is a non-profit community group that was established in 1985. Our mission is "to provide an extensive range of age-appropriate quality toys to member borrowers". We are self funded through fundraising, council grants, volunteer services, membership fees, donations and levies. To become a member is as simple as completing an application form and paying an annual fee.
The Toy Library caters for children aged 6 months to 6 years, but has family games as well. There are approximately 2000 toys available in a range of categories. The types of toys available include Little Tikes (cars, kitchens, workbenches), construction toys (Lego and Duplo), costumes, games, videos, puzzles and baby toys.
The Toy Library currently has approximately 300 members.
By joining the Toy Library you will be able to meet other parents and have access to a wider range of play experiences for your children. You will be able to increase your children's interest / stimulation and offer greater learning opportunities and at the same time save money by borrowing rather than buying toys.

"The Carnegie Toy Library formerly known as the Caulfield Community Toy Library is a not-for-profit organisation, run by volunteers for the children of Glen Eira. We lend hundreds of toys to local kids every month, offering a diverse range for children from 6 months to 6 years old. Borrowing toys regularly means more fun for kids, as well as financial and space savings for parents!Play is a crucial factor in developing a child's cognitive, physical and imaginative capacities, as well as helping them practice social skills. Our collection is based on well-designed, safe and durable toys which encourage imaginative play, sensory development, use of fine and gross motor skills, literacy, numeracy and other important pre-school abilities."to add Caulfield Community Toy Library map to your website;
