The Wanaka Community Toy Library is celebrating its 20th Birthday.
Toy Library founding member and current librarian Tracy Mayhew said “the toy library began with Heather Wellman, Lynne Quinn and I meeting in the old school house in Kowhai Drive. It was Lynne’s idea to start a toy library in Wanaka after she saw one elsewhere.” “We began with just a few donated toys and we now have over 900 educational toys for children aged 3 months to 6 years,” she said.
The Toy Library has over 300 members and many more people in the community who would have used the toy library over its 20 years. A year’s membership costs as little as $65 and seasonal memberships are available.

Also a great option for grandparents when their grandchildren are visiting.

This month the Toy Library is running one of its major fundraisers, a raffle with a grand prize of a go-cart full of toys. Tickets are available from members and will be for sale at various local events.
