Imagine 150,000 square feet of exhibit space completely dedicated to toys: board games, dolls, video games, books, a century-old carousel, New York’s only indoor butterfly garden, exhibits on Berenstain Bears, Sesame Street, Monopoly, the Wizard of Oz, and numerous others.
The Strong, or as it was previously known The Strong Museum of Play, is arguably one of the most exciting children museums in the world.
