COME VISIT
Play is essential for a child’s healthy development, but it is often missing in children’s lives today.
The Cape Cod Toy Library facilitates play and learning by offering high-quality educational play materials and enriching environments that enhance children’s play experiences and development.
WHY Play Matters
Play is practice for life - it provides foundational experiences that prepare children for the broad spectrum of situations and challenges they will encounter in the years to come. Play not only facilitates learning, it also helps heal.
Toy Library
The Toy Library has a curated collection of 2,000+ toys to choose from to support all areas of children’s development. Families and anyone who works with children, can borrow toys and resource books from the Toy Library with a Play Passport Subscription. Child development staff are available to help make developmentally appropriate selections for each child.
