This half term Year 1 have been learning about the toys Victorian children would play with and the materials they were made from.  We found Victorian Toys were made from wood, metal, glass, fabric and china, unlike our modern toys which are mostly plastic.

As part of our topic we visited the Discovery Museum in Newcastle, we were very excited!

We had a lesson in the classroom with Fran. She had lots of old toys hidden and we guessed what we though they were… a train, teddy bear, porcelain doll and a dog-bear (was it a dog or a bear!)

We had a great time exploring the museum!
