Wrap up nice and warm it's a cold one 😊🧤🧣

Thank you so much to all our mum's, dad's, nanny's, childminders, grandparents, guardians and all the little ones that have made our toy library and toddlers playgroup magical. You are all fantastic people and we can't wait to hopefully see you again when we open on January 15th at 10am. Seasons greetings, happy holidays and wishing you all an excellent New Year 😊🎆👶🧸

Today is the day folks, it's the last day of our Christmas toy sale 😊 We will also have our normal toy library and playgroup session running alongside the sale. Looking forward to seeing you if you are free anytime between 10am-11.30am 🏍️🚜🚛🏀⚽🎄🎁🎲🎨🌈🎈

Hi folks,
On Monday 4th of December we have another children's toy, books and clothes sale at St. Martin's Community Resource Centre. This will run beside our normal toy library session. If you're free why not come along and grab a bargain stocking filler or two all the funds raised will go back into batteries and towards buying new replacement toys for our toy library and toddlers play group. We'll be running at our normal time of 10am to 11.30am. Thanks very much.

Just a wee reminder that we are open as usual today from 10.00am to 11.30am. We will be open then every Monday until and including the 18th of December :) Have a great day 😊

Thanks to Bob our resident master train set builder 🚂 😊

Thank you to all our members 😁 Enjoying our singing session today (photo obtained with all parents/guardians permission).

Hi folks happy Monday,
Here are a few of our dress up outfits in our toy library. They might be great as Halloween costumes for your little ones.

Happy Monday folks,

As of this new term we have changed our membership fees for our Toy Library. New memberships will cost £10 per year or £5 for six months and there will be no charge weekly for the loan of toys :D We have found that this will be easier for our members as you will not need money every second week when borrowing toys. We unfortunately do not have a card reader so if you could bring cash for new memberships that would be perfect 👌 This applies to our current members also you will now not be charged any fees every second week until your current membership runs out. Our toddlers groups is still free and open to all babies and toddlers with parent(s)/guardian(s).

Looking forward to seeing you soon.

Good morning all. Today is our fist day back after the summer break. If you are wondering where to bring your little one, come through. The cars are waiting. See you.

Monday 10-11.30am.

Good morning, we are ready for your visit this morning.

A reminder that this would be our last session before the summer break and we will return on Monday 4th September. Any toy rented today, you could keep it over the summer until we reopen for no extra charge.

We hope to see as many of you today.

It has been a busy morning, could tell from the heavy traffic 😊.

We hope to see many of you again next Monday. Have a good week ahead.

Hi all, this is to confirm that we are open on next Monday 08/05. We look forward to having you for a fun morning 10-11.30am.

Just to confirm that we are open tomorrow 01/05 Monday as usual. Looking forward to having you and your little ones. 🌼

Hi all, we had our first session last Monday after the break due to building work. It was a great session with good turn out. Glad to see the return of many smiley little faces.

We have a returned toy below and if your little one is a pirate enthusiast, do come and check it out.

We look forward to see more of you on the coming Monday from 10-11.30am, Ah Hoy! 🏴‍☠️

We are very excited that we would meet soon. A reminder that we are reopening on Monday 17 May at 10-11.30am. See ya!

We are finally able to confirm reopening on the 17/04 Monday 10-11.30am. We hope to see many of you after the long break. Meanwhile wishing you a good spring holiday 🌷🌺🌼and a great Easter ahead. 🐣🐣🐣

Dear all,

Due to delayed roof work, we are still closed for the time being. Work will progress this and next week so hopefully we will have a better idea of reopening timing by the end of next week. Practically we are now looking into reopening after the Easter weekend.

If we managed to open earlier we shall post it here. Again, our apologies for the long closure and hope to see all soon.

King regards,
Toy Library and Toddler Martians’ volunteers

This is a quick note to say that we are still closed for the roof work and will inform of reopening date when we know it. Apologise and hoping we would be able to meet soon.

Good morning. Unfortunately the roof needs longer to fix. Toy library and Todller Martians are definitely closed for 06/02 Monday and could potentially extend to 13/02. We will update towards the end of next week to confirm, stay tuned.

Though is a frosty morning, we have a reasonably good turnout this morning.
If you have a tea set enthusiast, this adorable wooden tea set ready with its wooden tea bag, sugar cubes and biscuits is not to miss! 😍

We have a helpful hand vacuuming this morning and an amazing transportation of two buses in a trike…who would have thought 😁.

PLEASE NOTE: We are closing temporary from next Monday 23/01 for some roof work for at least two weeks but could be longer if the situation demand so. We shall update at this page should the closing sadly has to be extended.

Please be assured that any toys that have been loaned out could be kept including this closed period without any extra charges.

Good morning everyone. Hope you have had a wonderful time and festive break. Today is our first session back for the new year. Hope to see many of the familiar smiley faces to mark our new start.

See you from 10-11.30am.
