The Toy Circus in Shannon is a fun, quirky attraction in the small Manawatū town.
This interactive museum holds a huge collection of vintage and retro toys, games, roller skates, board games, and life-size figures from popular TV shows and movies.
It feels like stepping back in time to all the games and toys I had and did not have.
Beyond the museum displays, there are hands-on activities like mini golf, a skate rink, scooter and bike foam pits, and Nerf areas.
Paddy the owner will give you a full tour and refresh your memories of your childhood. Not many places like this around.
If your travelling between Levin and Palmerston North, it's worth stopping for a look.
Open weekends, public holidays, and by appointment (10am–5pm),
