The Tartu Toy Museum takes adults back to the bright moments of childhood, and offers children to learn a lot of interesting things. The exhibition features toys that Estonian children have played with for generations, as well as toys made by artists, souvenir dolls from different nations, and traditional toys of the Finno-Ugric peoples. In a separate room, puppets from Estonian cartoon films (“actor puppets”) are presented. The exposition is divided into thematic sections "medieval toys", "paper toys", "toys of the 60s", etc.
