The Library of Toys began a year ago with LovEvery kits. LovEvery provides developmentally based play for newborns to 4 year olds. Many more items have been added to the library since then. Coding Critters help teach coding concepts to the very young. STEM kits featuring Rapunzel and the Gingerbread Man help children problem solve. Games for tweens, teens or a family game night are available with How I Survived, Disney Villainous and Horrified. The toddler set and older will enjoy a toddler game night kit, a musical instrument set and a kindergarten readiness kit. Young Athletes bags include books, balls, scarves, rubber discs, bean bags and a play guide.
All Library of Things/Library of Toys items are available for a one-week checkout period. Items may be placed on hold to be sent to a branch location with the exception of the Adventure Packs. Jigsaw puzzles will be coming soon to the Library of Things. Drop by the library to check out at all the things available or search the online catalog.
