Mint Museum of Toys

The Mint Museum of Toys is a museum in Bugis housing a vast collection of toys from different countries and time periods. The exhibits spread across multiple levels and display everything from 19th century toys to more modern playthings from the 20th century.

The museum was founded in 2007 and focuses on toys manufactured between the 19th and late 20th century. The collection documents how toy production and design changed and evolved over time.

The collection reveals how toys shaped childhood across generations and which play trends different cultures favored. You can see how toy ideas and designs varied between countries and how children in different eras spent their play time.

The museum is easily accessible by public transport and located centrally in Bugis. Visitors should wear comfortable shoes since there are many stairs to navigate between the different levels.

The museum creatively uses every stairwell with rotating displays, making each path through the building its own discovery. On one of the levels there is also a special space where visitors can engage in coloring activities.
