When travelling in Edinburgh with children, a trip to the Museum
of Childhood is an absolute must and a favourite with adults and
children alike. It contains wonderful displays, featuring toys from
the past and present and from all parts of the world, as well as
displays about other aspects of childhood, including school and
sports, health and holidays. While children enjoy playing with the
toys, adults will enjoy the feelings of nostalgia at seeing their
favourite playthings of yesteryear.
