About
Leikki is a museum of childhood, toys and play, in the yard of Exhibition Centre WeeGee in Tapiola. Its main exhibition, Laboratory of Play, holds a mirror up to childhood in different eras, and changing exhibitions run alongside it, such as a look at childhood and youth in the 1950s. The museum also keeps a national collection of toys.
