点评:This is a little gem of a toy museum especially for the Gen Xers out there for whom it contains almost the perfect childhood wishlist of toys. Having said that, our Gen Z son also found it fascinating. I revisited my childhood yearnings for amazing toys like Sindy’s 3 storey house which was always beyond reach, and rediscovered other favourites that made it into Father Christmas’s sack such as Fuzzy Felts, Etch-a-Sketch etc. There were early electronic devices that my husband recalled and my son tracked the evolution of Lego.
There were retro and vintage toys for sale in the small shop, too.
The museum is a short (5 minute) walk away from the main shops of Lynton but it’s on the flat bit at the top of the village and well worth diverting for for a little slice of pure childhood nostalgia. It was a bargain at £2 each.
翻译:这间玩具博物馆简直是一颗珍宝,尤其对X世代的孩子们来说,这里几乎囊括了他们童年所有玩具愿望清单上的所有物品。话虽如此,我们Z世代的儿子也觉得这里非常迷人。我重拾了童年对各种神奇玩具的渴望,比如辛迪那座一直遥不可及的三层小房子,也重新发现了圣诞老人袋子里的其他心头好,比如毛毡积木、神奇画板等等。博物馆里还收藏着我丈夫记忆中的早期电子设备,我儿子则记录了乐高的演变过程。
小店里也出售复古玩具。
博物馆距离林顿的主要商店只有很短的步行路程(5分钟),但它位于村庄顶部的平地上,非常值得一去,感受一下纯粹的童年怀旧之情。每件2英镑,非常划算。
