Museum of Childhood -One Day Project

The idea behind this one-day project was to create a 'timeless toy' using typography.
The toys that usually get given the titles as 'timeless' are things which are used from babies and generally kept and re-used for years to come.
These things tend to be things like:
  • teddy bears (unisex, for comfort)
  • dolls houses
  • building blocks
These are 'timeless' because of their adaptability to be played by all ages, boy or girl. The toy that withstands all this playing would surely be the most beneficial. Teddy bears get worn down, fabric tears, eyes fall off. A building block, on the other hand, would be more durable; usually made of wood.
An extract i found from http://hubpages.com/hub/Wooden-Blocks-A-Timeless-Toy
"The best ones are made of a hardwood most commonly, Maple. ABC blocks are educational and children can start spelling words with them very early. With all the toy safety worries today, wooden blocks are safe and durable."
