“The Museum of Play joined the efforts of the ‘A Million Trees to Finland’ initiativebecause sustainability issues are important this year – and every year. Within the framework of the sustainable play project, the museum’s carbon footprint is calculated, environmental education is invested in, and intangible cultural heritage is spoken for. The Museum of Play wants to keep the planet playable for future play generations.”
– Johanna Rossi, Museum Director
Dedicated to play, childhood, and toys, The Museum of Play is located in Tapiola, in Espoo. Its mission is to defend the right to play for all ages. In its collection, the museum records a wide range of manifestations of play, and the variety of toy traditions dear to Finns – plus a range of pedagogical activities designed to educate and nurture present and future generations of museum visitors.
