Nana brings own baby toys

I really don't know if IABU or not.

I have a 1 year old girl. Ever since she was born, her Nana visits every week or two. Each time she brings a bag of toys to play with baby. And then takes the toys home again each time. AIBU to think this is odd? They are different toys each week and the baby enjoys playing with them. So I'm not going to stop her, but wondered if other people's parents did this or if it's a bit strange? We obviously have toys here at home!

Bit weird, but harmless enough. I hope she’s happy to stop if LO gets upset at them being taken off her though - not fair if you have to deal with a toddler crying over their new toy being taken after every visit.

I'd have thought it nice for your dc to have some different things to play with when she visits.
On the same principle I have a lot of things for little Gdcs to play with when they visit - different things from home.

And I don't mind admitting that I recently took a new, simple game to Gdcs' house to amuse them, which it did, but I brought it home with me for future visits, since I know that in my very time-pressed dd's house, several of the pieces would inevitably go missing, never to be seen again.
