💛 Playtime Pick 💛

This week’s feature is the Super Sorting Pie — a colourful hands-on activity that makes learning through play so much fun!

With sorting counters, jumbo tweezers, and plenty of ways to play, this toy helps children build:
✨ Fine motor skills
✨ Colour recognition
✨ Sorting and counting skills
✨ Early maths concepts

It’s perfect for little learners who love to scoop, sort, and explore — and it’s a great activity to grow with your child as they learn new skills.

Available now from our Toy Library shelves 💛

💛 Playtime Pick 💛

Say hello to the Pretendables Lemonade Set — a sweet addition to any play kitchen or pretend café.

Perfect for imaginative play, little ones can mix, pour, and serve up their own lemonade creations while building confidence, communication, and social skills.

✨ Play ideas:
• Set up a lemonade stand at home
• Take turns being the customer and the shopkeeper
• Add play food or real cups for extra fun

Pop it on your next borrow list and let the pretend play flow!

Royal visit alert 👀👑

In a move absolutely no one saw coming (including us) Prince Harry and Meghan may or may not have quietly stopped by Puffing Billy Toy Library during their recent visit to Australia…

Sources (the toddlers) say the visit included rigorous testing of the car ramp, deep discussions around toy rotation, and a strong interest in membership options.

Official statement pending… but we’re fairly confident we’ve passed the royal inspection 😉✨
