KS1 Visit to Young V&A Museum

What an exciting adventure our KS1 children had as they delved into the fascinating world of toys! Children took a fantastic trip to the Young V&A Museum, immersing themselves in a hands-on learning experience that showcased the evolution of playthings throughout history.
From vintage wooden toys to the latest tech gadgets, our young learners compared and contrasted toys from the past with those that spark joy today. They discovered how toys have not only provided entertainment for children but have also been crucial in development, creativity, and social skills.
Throughout the visit, children had the chance to engage with a variety of objects created specifically for children, which offered an invaluable perspective on design and play. It was heartwarming to see their eyes light up as they learned about how toys reflect the times in which they were created and the importance of imagination in play.
This exploration not only enriched their understanding of history but also sparked exciting conversations among peers about their favourite toys and how they’ve changed!
We encourage our parents and community to ask their little ones about the toys they learned about – you might just uncover a gem of a story or two!
A huge thank you to the Young V&A Museum for providing such an inspiring environment for our children’s learning journey!
