Move over, Zoltar! The Amazing Esmerelda read my fortune. Luckily, I did not wake up as a 13-year-old the next day, so we can call it a win.

As a dollhouse lover, this is an amazing place.

Miniature circus under the big top!

 

Buttons and switches and buzzers to press to make the displays move and light up and sing – and lots of places to insert your quarters to power an outstanding imagination.

 

The power for most of the moving things is provided by washing machine motors.

Tinkertown has collected original transcontinental wagons and farm implements, and built their own little town buildings to house them

 

Hummingbirds gather at Tinkertown in large numbers
