Building and inventing
Anker building blocks and Meccano offer a way into construction toys. See which shapes and possibilities the presentation shows, without assuming that every item on display may be played with.
Putting on a show
Magic lanterns and other items relating to projection shift the focus to image and story. The explanations can help you understand how a viewing experience was organised.
Carnival as a local subject
The carnival room covers Oosterhout. Keep that local context in mind, so that the presentation becomes more than a collection of recognisable festive objects.
Before you go
Preferably book a time slot and check opening on public holidays. The museum is all on one level; groups and guided tours arrange their visit in advance.
