Under the theme ´Play, games and toys´ we aim to display some children's and adults' games, old and new. Games and toys have their own history. Some of them we can remember even from our own childhood while some of them have a very short life, appearing and disappearing as fashions. Some games and toys are related to the seasons. In Finland (like elsewhere in the North of Europe) we have four clearly different seasons. Winter games like sliding downhill with sledge on a snow differ essentially from summer games like ´twist´ or some ball games. In this section we try to revive some forgotten games and toys, but to display also some contemporary children's games.
