Attached to the Service d'Aide Familiale de Morges, the toy library on Rue de Couvaloup makes more than 1,500 games and toys available to families in the region. A real strength of the place: more than 300 titles marked with a DYS logo, aimed at children with language or learning difficulties.
Loans cost between 1 and 5 francs for four weeks, with an annual membership of 20 francs per family or a 100-franc subscription that includes the loans. Games can be reserved by telephone or by email, and special rates exist for schools, day-care centres and family childcare services.
Run by a team of twelve volunteers, including one qualified toy librarian, the library opens three afternoons a week, Wednesday to Friday, as well as the first Saturday of the month from 10:00 to 13:00.
