Slideshow – Christmas presents from the past!

Christmas may have changed for many over the decades, but one thing remains the same – every child will be looking forward to a present!

Presents in 2025 may look very different to those in our past, but the excitement will be just as intense.

In Horsham Museum archives are a variety of old toys from many decades ago right up to this century.

We have compiled a short slideshow of just a few of the more recent toys that many of you will remember receiving as presents.

From Airfix kits to building blocks, these were treasured items and we hope they bring back some good memories.
