The Strong Museum: The National Museum of Play 🎮 👾 🎲

I have been meaning to blog about this museum, The Strong Museum, for quite some time. It honors the past time of play and houses a comprehensive and thorough archive of artifacts–toys! It is a special place that captures magic on so many levels. I highly recommend spending the day here if it is ever a possibility.

Candy Land could have been cooler.

On the path of the game of LIFE.

The LIFE spinner

Monopoly of course

Big Bird

The new love letter to video games. It’s really neat and all interactive.

Hologram me

Really big Donkey Kong

At the gift shop

It was a Star Wars celebration!

Between the special events, exhibits and opportunity to play, this is a must-see in Rochester!
