Welcome to the Toy Library

The North Shore Community Toy Library in Mairangi Bay is a vibrant community hub, offering families access to over 1,500 high-quality educational toys, games, and puzzles. Run by dedicated volunteers, the library has provided 25 years of fun and learning, giving children access to toys that support their growth and development. For a small annual fee, families can borrow toys that match their child’s age and interests, try toys before buying, and avoid the environmental impact of low-quality, breakable toys. Open three days a week, including school holidays, our library promotes community connections and sustainability for a brighter future.

Beyond lending toys, we’re committed to fostering community inclusion. We offer a welcoming space where families can connect, and we encourage integration for retirees, youth, and new migrants through volunteer opportunities. Our focus on affordability and inclusion supports families from all backgrounds, providing equal access to quality toys that might otherwise be out of reach. Joining is easy—stop by during open hours or register online, and start exploring the joy of learning through play!
