Strong Museum The National Museum of Play
http://www.strongmuseum.org/index.html
Playing is: learning, imagining, pretending, competing, discovering, socializing, collecting, shifting perspectives and so much more. Here is a museum and website devoted to exploring PLAY. The museum, located in Rochester, NY, is also the home of the National Toy Hall of Fame. I wonder if your favorite made the list.
