Test children’s knowledge of how toys have changed over time with this engaging Year 1 and Year 2 History Toys Through Time Quiz. Designed to support learning about changes within living memory, this activity helps pupils recall key facts about toys from the past and present and understand how toys have changed between generations.

The quiz includes a range of child-friendly questions and activities, including identifying toys from the past, sorting toys from different generations, recognising materials used to make toys and comparing the toys children play with today to those their grandparents may have used. Children will practise their history vocabulary, develop their ability to compare objects over time and reflect on how toys have changed.

Perfect for use as a history assessment activity, end-of-unit review, morning task or independent challenge, this resource provides a fun and engaging way for pupils to revisit their learning about toys through time and how inventions, materials and designs have changed over generations.
