"We try to come up with a list of finalists that do represent different kinds of play," curator Patricia Hogan tells the Democrat and Chronicle. "We like to have board games as well as puppets and balls, a broad spectrum of classic toys." Voting is open to all at the museum's website. (More toys stories.)
