Quality Toys :

• Will promote "good" play by aiding in the development, education and imaginative capacity of the child, and form in the child the ability to share and co-operate with other children.
  
• Are well designed and constructed.
  
• Are durable and safe.
  

It's not only young humans who play as a way to learn, young animals do too. A kitten will chase, pounce on and play-fight a ball of wool or a toy mouse. It is busy learning how to hunt and catch its dinner.

Children have much more to learn and it takes much longer to grow up. So many skills to learn - such as how to walk, talk and make things with your hands. Each one needs lots of time spent playing and practising to perfection.

A useful reference for anyone involved with a toy library is the "Safe toys for kids" guide provided for free by the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission (ACCC). Click here to download a digital copy from the ACCC website
