Excursion The History of Toys for Big Kids (with Toy Train)

The experience begins at the historic Rico factory, symbol of a time when Ibi became the toy-making heart of Spain. There, passengers board the Toy Train and are welcomed by a period-dressed conductor, a true storyteller and guardian of collective memory.

From the very first moment, the train stops being just a means of transport and becomes A TIME MACHINE.

As it travels through the streets of Ibi, the conductor explains how the toy industry was born, how its materials evolved, how those factories provided work for entire generations… and how, without knowing it, they were creating something far more valuable than toys: THEY WERE CREATING CHILDHOOD.

Every corner of the route is a door open to memory. Every story is a spark that awakens sleeping emotions.

The journey ends at the Toy Museum, where visitors explore its facilities discovering large collections of classic and vintage toys. Dolls, trains, cars and emblematic pieces are not only observed… THEY ARE RECOGNISED. And in that moment, something magical happens: someone whispers, “I had one of those.”

It is not just another cultural visit. It is A REUNION WITH WHO WE USED TO BE.

Adults smile like children. Eyes light up. Memory comes alive.

The History of Toys is much more than an excursion: it is A DIRECT JOURNEY BACK TO CHILDHOOD, a cultural and emotional experience that connects generations and highlights the industrial identity of Ibi.

Especially meaningful for senior audiences, associations and organised groups, although suitable for all ages.
