Nurturing the Future

We enable families to reduce their environmental footprint through borrowing rather than buying, and extending the useful life of our wonderful collection through many years of play. We also support other recycling initiatives through the Toy Library, such as the Nappy Collective & Terracycle programs.
Expanded Hours!

The Toy Library has a fresh new open session: Tuesday mornings 10am - 12pm. We've extended Fridays to finish at 12pm too, so you have even more time to browse and play. We look forward to welcoming you!

Supporting families with the tools for play

"Great community service, very friendly and helpful staff. Good range of toys and games that are suitable for children in different age groups. Highly recommended to young families."
- Fiona
"Easily one of the best discoveries during our journey as parents so far."
- Dan
"Our family has been a member of the Moorabbin Area Toy Library for 4 years now, and we love the fantastic coordinators, as well as the wide variety of toys, games and puzzles for our two kids of different ages."
- Karen
"There is no other way that my toddler can get to play with such a wide range of toys. Being a two-year-old, he gets bored with toys quickly. We can just return them and get him some new ones, without worrying about what to do with the toys he no longer plays with."
- Lisa
"Joining the toy library was the BEST decision. The selection at Moorabbin is huge. I've saved so much money on toys and clutter in my house and been able to mix it up to give my daughter variety as she builds different interests. Highly recommend!!"
- Rebecca
"Sharing is caring, this membership is worth every single cent. Saves you tons of money on new toys that would get neglected after 3 days. Their website is awesome, allowing you to browse for what is available before going for a ride there."
- Minh

Too many toys is a problem many young families experience – reduce the clutter before it starts by borrowing instead of buying.
