Play, learn and share through the new Toyshare UAE app
Books and toys are a kid’s best friends…but that doesn’t mean that parents have to break the bank for them. Fortunately, ToyShare UAE is here to help! The UAE’s first book and toy rental platform provides mommies and daddies with an affordable and sustainable way to rent high-quality products for their children. Let’s take a closer look at what this new service offers.
WHAT IS TOYSHARE UAE?
ToyShare UAE is an online off-centre recreational and educational book and toy rental application. This unique new platform was conceptualised by Hani Al Qattan, an airline pilot who saw the need for such a service from his own experiences as a parent.
The core aim of the app is to reduce waste and save toys from ending up in landfills. Based on the shared economy concept, it solves the problem of outgrown toys and helps parents save space at home as an added bonus.

The platform features toys from high-end international brands, suited for kids from 2 to 12-years-old. Lego, Nerf guns and LeapFrog are some of the popular brands available at Toyshare.
