The V&A Museum of Childhood in Bethnal Green in the East End of London is a branch of the Victoria and Albert Museum, which is the United Kingdom's national museum of applied arts. It is a fascinating record of the influence toys have had on adults and an eye-opener for younger generations in the digital world! Very busy during school holiday times with plenty of activities and entertainment for children. Allow an hour and a half minimum!
