Thank you for your contribution to this community effort!
We are a toy lending library, much like a book library! We believe that playtime should not impact the environment or break the bank. Members join the library and can borrow up to 5 toys for about a month at a time.
We are so happy you stopped by and showed interest in helping out. We operate three locations:
Northeast Minneapolis branch at 2510 Cleveland St NE
South Minneapolis branch at 8 W 60th St.
St. Paul branch at 1505 Burns Ave
Volunteer shifts online at https://mplstoylibrary.org/events-calendar/
Volunteers will help check toys in or out for members using our simple online software. Other jobs include putting toys back on the shelf or other toy related tasks. Volunteers will always be with a lead volunteer if you have any questions.

About Minnesota Toy Library
Location:
Richfield Lutheran Church, 8 W 60th St, Minneapolis, MN 55419, US
Mission Statement
The Minnesota Toy Library seeks to reduce waste, promote development and build community in the Twin Cities area.
Description
The Minnesota Toy Library is a toy lending program for families with children ages birth to 5 years.
Like a book library, you can check-out up to five toys, take them home for 2-4 weeks and exchange them for new ones when you return!
Annual membership runs on a sliding scale $40-$100, depending on what works best for your family.
Become a member by coming to one of our three locations to sign up for a membership.
The toy library offers an opportunity for families to connect with one another while supporting their child(ren)’s development through play and reducing their impact on the environment.
