Abstract
The drive is based on the project The World of Toys and the exhibition Children’s Toys from the Croatian Heritage. In addition to the popularity acquired through the recognition of the wish and need to acquaint the youngest generation with the traditional toys of their ancestors, it also highlights appropriate values at several levels of social and humanistic action. Within this scope emphasis is placed of the educational and museological components, and its significance is considered through the overlapping prisms of present-day requirements governing museum activity and international trends in educational – primarily preschool – theory and practice.
