“A spring, a spring, a marvelous thing! Everyone knows it’s Slinky!” Whether you remember the iconic Slinky jingle or have fond memories of playing with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Cabbage Patch Dolls, Barbies, G.I. Joes, or Hot Wheels, this exhibit is for you! 

Play with jumbo toy replicas inspired by "Mr. Spud," "Lite-Brite" and "Sorry!" watch old commercials, and see countless toys that will send you back to the playroom of your childhood.
