Toy Town Museum


Currently closed and looking for a new location, the Toy Town Museum was formerly located in the Fisher Price Village in East Aurora, NY. Their location is just south of the East Aurora Country Club and Sinking Pond Wildlife Sanctuary.

The Toy Town Museum is dedicated to preserving the history of toys. This area of New York has been the home to several toy companies over the last 100 years. East Aurora is still the headquarters for Fisher-Price. The museum includes over 8,000 square feet of exhibit space, a fifty-seat theater, unique permanent toy collections, travelling exhibits, a toy train that runs through the museum, and a gift shop with unique souvenirs.

Before closing to locate a new home, the museum hours ran from noon to 5:00 p.m. on weekends. Visitors could see the original toys made by Fisher-Price when they opened for business in 1930. The museum also displayed a fully furnished doll house with electricity and a working Erector set.

Groups are often seen at the museum and group rates are availbale. Reservations can be made in advance for guided and self-guided tours. The museum is closed on all major holidays. School children who arrive for learning and workshops must be accompanied by an adult chaperone. Large groups must be screened in advance.
