This museum provides the ideal opportunity to show children how much toys have evolved over the decades. The museum was opened in 1998 by founder Vincent Brown. Vincent’s passion for preserving old toys started when he decided to keep a box of toys a friend was throwing away. The toys were not up to present health and safety standards, so instead of giving them to his own children as he had originally intended, Vincent restored them and started a collection of his own. His love for vintage toys grew rapidly, and after visiting a similar museum in England, he decided to open The Toy Museum in Valletta. Collections include vintage Dinky, Corgi and Matchbox cars, dolls, train sets and farmyard animals. A nostalgic experience for parents and grandparents and a real eye-opener for the kids of today.
