  • Toy Libraries in Sweden in 1988. Lindberg, Marianne And Others Childrens Games Disabilities Elementary Secondary Education Foreign Countries Library Role Library Services Parent Education Play Preschool Education Staff Role Toys Public and private organizations have developed toy libraries in Sweden for children with disabilities and children in need of special support for their development. Toy libraries have become places where parents can acquire advice with regard to play, meet a pedagogue with experience with children with handicaps, and meet other parents with the same problems. Described are the philosophy of the toy libraries, the role of the toy librarian in making the child's abilities visible to the parents, and the results of surveys which indicate that use of toy libraries in the habilitation of children and youth is increasing.
