Get your game on at the Worcester Historical Museum, 30 Elm St., Worcester. The Game On! exhibition on the fun history of toys and games is on view through March.
Exploring the history of toys and games in America, Game On! is designed like a board game, encouraging children and adults to explore the gallery and artifacts ~ like LEGOs, the first paper dolls manufactured in America, toy soldiers, puzzles, Barbies and more ~ while answering trivia, playing games and having fun. The exhibition surveys the development of play and the toy industry, looking at New England-based giants, like Parker Brothers, Milton Bradley and Hasbro, and smaller companies, like the Worcester Toy Company and Ralphco Inc.
WHM is open 10 a.m.- 4 p.m. Tuesdays through Saturdays. WOO Card holders enjoy two-for-one admission.
