Dozens of toys and games from the Baby Einstein series that had been accumulating in the Einstein Archives at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem were donated last week to charity. The Einstein Archives decided to donate the games to the playroom of a school for hospitalized children at Hadassah Ein Kerem Hospital in Jerusalem.
The toys and games are part of the Baby Einstein and Little Einstein line by Disney.
In his will, Albert Einstein bequeathed the rights to all his writings and intellectual property - which includes his image - to the Hebrew University. As such, the Einstein Archives receives samples of each toy and game that uses Einstein's image, one of which remains in the Archives and the rest of which are given to charity.
