Weekends when my husband takes my kid out to the park, it is vacation mode for me. And by vacation, it strictly means things that I can do which my kid wouldn’t allow in her presence! And top on that list was de-cluttering her play room. And I realised the number of toys that we had hoarded out of an interest to gift our little one. Some of them were still unused, some hardly used but very few were over-used. A conversation with a friend from space-starved Mumbai came to my mind. She had told me how she had used the services of a toy-rental to serve her needs and I wished if only Delhi had the same options. And wasn’t I surprised when I found out that Delhi-NCR had various options where you could rent toys and even books for a period, so that you can enjoy some much-deserved space at home and you could be guilt-free of over-the-top shopping for your child. These toy libraries also claim of a safe and sterilized toy-maintenance process that will put your worries to rest. Housing most of the famous international brands, your search for the best gift for your kid ends here. A list of the famous toys rental services in the Delhi-NCR region.
