The Toy Library - Cambourne

23/06/2026

The Toy Library won't be open this week due to the heatwave.

We know how stressful it can be looking after little ones in the heat, lots of us will be getting out the paddling pools and ice cube messy play. Remember that there are lots of useful resources to help you keep babies and children safe in the hot weather!

Here is a link to the Lullaby Trust:

When the weather’s hot or you’re on holiday, these tips help keep your baby safe and comfortable this summer, reducing the risk of SIDS...

There's a thunderstorm making its way to Cambourne!

If you have a little one staying up - maybe not too sure about the thunder and lightning, it might help to use the lightning tracker and show them just how predictable thunder can be!

Don't forget to take advantage of Cambridge museums, who regularly do stuff for children during and outside of school holidays.

The museum of technology is often overlooked as it is a little more difficult to find, but with lots of games to play it can be a great day out!

Another tip for the Fitzwilliam Museum - ask to see their "Family Trolley"! They have sensory and story sacks you can set out in exhibit rooms and use to help engage little ones in the exhibit while you also get to see what's on offer.
