This is a must-see for the young and young at heart. Located near the Country Club Plaza on the University of Missouri-Kansas City campus, this museum features a collection of antique toys, built-to-scale miniatures, antique dolls, doll houses, farm toys and teaching kitchens. They recently added a new room to feature the worlds most complete marble collection, donated by Larry and Cathy Runyan-Svacina. The museum was founded in 1982 by two women who wanted to share their toy collections with the general public. Adults will especially enjoy the miniature displays, which fascinate and inspire. Admission: $6 adults, $5 seniors and students, $4 children (5-12).

Dollhouses, exact-scale miniatures and Tonka trucks make this mansion-turned-museum a fantastic lesson in make-believe.
