[Artemisia] Period Toys & Games Question

[Bradley Wolf]

There is also a book out entiled "Of Horses, Tops and Flanders Babies:
Medieval and Renaissance Toys" by India Ollerenshaw.  My copy arrived while
I was at Pennsic, and while I haven't had the chance to read it through
completely, it does look pretty good.

Not much else to offer... I did a search using:  Medieval children's games
or something like that and came up with a lot of stuff....

perhaps using internet searches will help you come up with other things on
your own?????

Good luck

  KEWL!  Thanks!  Any more good children toy/game sites
  you can recommend?

  Carving the horses is fairly simple and turning a top
  isn't that difficult even on my springpole lathe.
  That should give me something to do for the next few
  weeks.

  Also I referenced a three legged stool from that site
  that looks more comfortable than my painted three
  legged stool I shoot crossbow with.  Although I might
  use wedges like used in Winsor chairs to make the legs
  fit better in the seat but I do like the design.

  Again many thanks!
  Michael
