On 25th March, we were pleased to have 10 families with 16 kids attended our Easter Play Day. We all had a wonderful time by hunting eggs, playing games, dancing, and making new friends. Click here to see more pictures of the day.

During the first week of the July school holidays the Toy Librarians were challenged by a very clever young visitor to play the Disney Doc McStuffins Memory Game. We thought it would be easy so we accepted the challenge. Although the instructions were simple: flip two matching cards, and the objective was clear: the victor is determined by the one who obtains the most pairs, it honestly took the librarians a long time to finish the game. We were reminded by an old adage that day: never judge a book (in this case a game) by its cover (literally). Don’t be fooled by the cute pictures of the darling Doc McStuffins and her adorable animal pals. This 37 piece memory card game was not what it seemed. So if you want to play a fun and mentally engaging game for both you and your child, we highly recommend checking out the Disney Doc McStuffins Memory Card Game.
