Margaret Woodbury Strong (1897-1969) loved to play and found serious fun in collecting artifacts of play. Intelligent, intuitive, and competitive, she played at travel, archery, golf, bowling, gardening, and flower arranging and assembled an extraordinary assortment of objects that illuminate the American experience through the window of play. To share her keen interest, in 1968 she founded a museum that would use her collections to fascinate, educate, and entertain.
