LONDON WITH KIDS: MUSEUM OF CHILDHOOD

Are you planning a trip to London with your family? London is a fascinating city thanks to tons of interesting things to do that seem to change with every visit.

I would recommend that you add to your “don’t miss”  list the V& A Museum of Childhood.

 

The Museum of Childhood is the UK’s National Museum of Childhood and the largest institution of its kind in the world. It is part of the Victoria & Albert Museum, one of the world’s leading museum of art and design (furniture, fashion, textiles, photography, sculpture, theater, Asian art…etc)

 

 

The mission of the Museum of Childhood “is to be an international leader in engaging audiences in the material culture and experiences of childhood“.

 

Your kids will love this Museum as it is home to one of the world’s finest collections of constructions toys, doll’s houses, toy’s figures, paper models, puppets, games, and costumes.

 

 

It is also a great place to hold a child’s part, to learn about the past, try different costumes, volunteer or enjoy the “quiet days” specially designed for groups of children with special needs.
