The book presents the toys and games that children played in Ancient Greece. 

Many of the toys and games we play today, like dolls, the yoyo, jacks, ball, blind man’s buff, hopscotch, hide-and-seek, and statues, resemble the toys and games of antiquity&mdash;only the names differ. Through descriptions, illustrations, and images of ancient toys, now in Greek and foreign museums, the reader learns about the toys and games enjoyed in ancient Greece. Each section of this book includes suggestions and ideas for creating toys using a variety of materials and a lot of imagination.
