Visions of Sugar Plums 'Tis the season to be jolly, especially if you're a child expecting lots of toys under the tree! One lucky Kansas boy received this collection of well-loved gifts from his parents in the 1920s. Joseph Lake played with the toys at his parent's southeast Kansas home. Later, his own children enjoyed them while visiting their grandparents. You can see Joseph's toys at the Kansas Museum of History through January.
