A new showcase exhibition entitled Batteries Not Included launched at Bailiffgate Museum in Alnwick last week.

The exhibition is a celebration of toys, games and pastimes, and was officially opened by Christine Lawson, co-founder and managing director of Eduk8 Worldwide.

It will run throughout the spring and summer and will include activities such as dressing up, puppet shows, games and photo opportunities. There will also be a Teddy Bears’ Picnic in April, and during the May Bank Holiday weekend there will be three days of Build It, for which Eduk8 is supplying competition prizes.

Eduk8 is also supplying the museum with a range of its toys to sell through the shop, that have, until now, only been available for children to play with at school.

Christine commented: “We are delighted to be supporting this exhibition at a wonderful museum very close to our offices. We are looking forward to continuing to work with and support the museum going forward, and hopefully, when today’s children look back on their favourite toy from their childhood in years to come, they’ll fondly remember one of our products bought from Bailiffgate Museum shop.”
