Playgroups and toy libraries
Playgroups offer opportunities for babies and pre-schoolers to socialise and develop new skills while their parents/guardians have opportunities to build friendships with other families within the community.
Toy Libraries are non-profit organisations run by volunteer members, providing cost-effective ways for parents to access fun and educational toys and play material. Toys available for loan cater for children from birth to eight years.
