Click and collect toy library opens in Ku-ring-gai

Published on 18 November 2024

The toy library will open on 25 November in St Ives, offering parents a click and collect borrowing service to keep their kids entertained.

The new toy library is modelled on a similar service operating on Sydney’s northern beaches, where families can borrow a wide range of educational and high-quality toys in return for a small weekly fee.

The Cubby House Toy Library will operate from 1A Acron Road St Ives on Mondays each week between 11.30am and 12 noon.

It’s available to parents through a click and collect service operated by the EarlyEd organization. Families can sign up to join the service at www.earlyed.com.au/join-the-toy-library/

A playgroup for children with disabilities also operates out of 1A Acron Road, which is open to families three days a week.

The St Ives toy library service will be officially launched on Monday 25 November by Ku-ring-gai Mayor Christine Kay, who said the service was a ‘great way for families to save money on buying toys and learn about the benefits of recycling’.

“Through the Toy Library, parents can access developmentally appropriate toys in a low cost and sustainable way”.  

“The new service is an example of how we can reduce the cost of living for young families and provide a place for them to meet and get advice about their child’s development”.
