Prior to the coming of mains electricity to Cardwell, and of course, the much later advent of Television Shows, families found joy and entertainment through playing games of all varieties. Our display showcases a collection of board games including a Motor Rider; the Down Mail; a Bicycle Game with directions; and the British Empire Game circa early 1900’s, together with a metal Train set plus the old favourite Fiddle Sticks, a game of skill and balance.
