This museum in the old town of Tartu gathers toys spanning generations, from wooden folk playthings and dolls to model railways and mechanical games. Displays trace how children played across different eras and how toys reflected the wider society that made them. A theatre house within the complex stages puppet shows, and workshops let young visitors try traditional crafts. The nostalgic collection appeals to families and adults alike, and its setting in a historic wooden building adds to the gentle, playful atmosphere of the exhibits.
