What visitors say
Super fun! The toys date back to 1860’s. Really well displayed and all around n pristine condition! Check out the new Barbie display! This is great for kids or something else to do in Napa other than wine tasting
Amazing collection of old toys. If you love history this place is a must see. Took my 111 year old son in and he was amazed. Owner is great!
A hidden gem. The owner of the museum was there and is incredibly kind and knowledgeable. He gave us detailed history on all the toys, his collection is incredible. Also many of the toys are almost 150 years old and they still work.…
