Question of the week: Do you have a favourite museum to recommend? "The V&A Museum of Childhood in Bethnal Green in the East End of London is a branch of the Victoria and Albert Museum (the "V&A"), which is the United Kingdom's national museum of applied arts. The site has hosted a museum since 1872.
The mission of the museum is "To enable everyone, especially the young, to explore and enjoy the designed world, in particular objects made for and made by children." It has extensive collections of toys, childhood equipment and costumes, and stages a programme of temporary exhibitions. It is free and open between 1000 and 1745 daily.
Definitely an under-explored part of London, with a rich history."- Ric
