The Toy Library

The Chattanooga Public Library has launched its newest Beyond Books collection: The Toy Library, giving cardholders access to high-quality educational toys designed to support the development of young minds from newborns to 8-year-olds. Made possible by a gift from the UnFoundation, the selection is specifically designed to support the development of cognitive, gross motor, fine motor, emotional and linguistic skills, including Montessori toys, Magna-Tiles, STEM-supporting toys from Fisher Price and Little Tykes, as well as a number of Tonieboxes and Tonies for interactive storytimes at home. The rotating inventory gives families and caregivers a chance to try out toys before buying them or to use them to save money or space at home. Toys can be checked out through any of the library’s five locations. Learn more at chattlibrary.org/the-toy-library.
