Toy Library Service is just just child’s play

It’s child’s play for library staff after a new and improved Toy Library service was launched.

Parents and carers who are adult members of Renfrewshire Libraries can now go online to borrow two sets of toys at any one time for four weeks and the service is free.

Adults should log on to www.renfrewshirelibraries.co.uk to choose which toys to borrow and which local library they would like to pick them up from.

Joyce McKellar, chief executive of Renfrewshire Leisure said: “Play is crucial in a child’s development and by borrowing from our Toy Library youngsters can fire up their imagination, become creative and learn how to play with other children and share their experiences.

“But the toys aren’t just for the very young as the whole family including older brothers and sisters can join in the fun.”
