If you have a child or work with kids, this site is an absolute MUST!
![]() This site does not involve toys, but some of the links there either involve toys or lead to people of knowledge in that area. Thus it is a place to start for research if needed.

For magic lantern information this site is a must.

![]() Normally we only allow links to historical folk toys, but this site is a MUST to include. It is a site that gives so many ideas on making science fun for kids. Arvind describes his business this way "We work with over 100 Municipal schools where the poorest children study. We wish to make science fun for them and in the process fun for all the children of the world." One look at their aim and their web site will tell you instantly why it is included here.
