Make & Play
At MINT Museum of Toys, we believe that toys are not just mere playthings. Toys possess significant historical and cultural values. They also epitomise the essence of design and function, which prove to be valuable inspirations. Playing with toys is also an art form which has evolved over the decades. With such beliefs, the idea of Make & Play is born to cultivate the spirit of creating, playing and having fun!
Make & Play is run by MINT Museum of Toys, aimed at providing families with unique bonding opportunities through the exploration of the museum’s collection and engagement in toy-making and other craft activities.
Held on the last Sunday of each month, Make & Play consists of a themed guided tour and concludes with a creative workshop.

Calling for artists or handicraft instructors, wish to teach a skill or two to the public on anything from crocheting a teddy bear to drawing comics and more? Let’s get the next creative workshop running!
