Welcome to Celebrate Creativity and Conversations with Toys,

of Toys and Childhood Artifacts—

the alarms are set,
and words wait quietly on the shelves…
until someone notices them.
NARRATOR (WARM, WRAP-UP):
The alphabet blocks settle back into their tray,
quiet again behind glass—
twenty-six little doors
waiting for the next set of hands
to open them.
Wherever you are listening from tonight,
I hope you’ll remember them the next time
you see a word on a page,
or a sign, or a screen.
Behind every line of Shakespeare,
behind every eerie sentence from Poe,
behind every text, email, and grocery list,
there’s still a tiny alphabet,
stacked up like toy blocks,
holding the whole thing together.
Thank you for spending this after-hours visit
at the Metropolitan Museum
of Toys and Childhood Artifacts.
Thank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.
