Waimairi Toy Library is a toy library based at Wairakei Primary School, 250 Wairakei Road, in Bryndwr, Christchurch. On fine days, look for its rainbow flag. It is open on Saturdays from 9.30am to 11.30am. It is closed for long weekends and over the summer holidays, but stays open through the school holidays.
The library also supports other new and existing non-profit toy libraries, with information on running one, choosing toys and the value of play. Because it is based at the school, families can find it on the same site as the school's own grounds. Our pick in Bryndwr for a Saturday morning visit to a toy library.
