Museum of Childhood review

The extensive collection of toys and childhood mementos stretches back decades, to when lead soldiers and china-headed dolls were state-of-the-art toys, but also runs through to the era of Barbie and Ken. In truth, while grins of recognition are usually spread wide across the faces of kids-at-heart of all ages, older generations may enjoy their trip down memory lane far more than pre-teens.
