Lonely Planet review for Museum of Childhood

Halfway down the Royal Mile is ‘the noisiest museum in the world’. Often filled with the chatter of excited children, it covers serious issues related to childhood – health, education, upbringing and so on – but also has an enormous collection of toys, dolls, games and books, recordings of school lessons from the 1930s, and film of kids playing street games in 1950s Edinburgh.
