Step into nostalgia at Edinburgh’s Museum of Childhood, the world’s first museum dedicated to all things play.
The Museum of Childhood opened its doors in 1957; this treasure trove has ballooned into a time capsule, packed with everything from Victorian dolls to today’s action figures.
From Muffin the Mule to Buzz Lightyear and beyond, the museum’s shelves brim with childhood icons from every era, alongside quirky relics that bring the worlds of play, school, and home to life.
A pint-sized dressing-up zone, complete with a teepee, lets little ones dive straight into the fun.
