Museum of Childhood

This museum houses an extraordinary collection of dolls, toys, games, childcare objects, doll's houses, children's costumes, teddy bears, soft toys and dream toys!

There are daily free activities for children and families including arts and crafts, games and storytelling.

If you are organised, remember to print out a gallery trail in advance as these are no longer available from the information desk. The trail is rather fun because it is about a mystery that toy has escaped from its case and is hiding in the Museum. You have to help Zohar, the toy detective, solve the clues to discover the toy's identity.

If you have kids it is hard to go wrong in a museum full of toys!
