A treasure trove of antique toys has been unearthed at a Lawrenceville, Georgia elementary school. 

With the iPad, the Nintendo Wii and MP3 players all over the place - this most recent discovery still proves that you can never go wrong with a good old fashion wooden toy.

It's enough to have an historian spinning in a circle of fun while enjoying some old school entertainment.

"Old tricycles and we also have some scooters," said Principal Deborah Harris.

A rare, but classic find of games for children - dating back to the early 1930s. 

They were cleaning out a storage area in the basement of the historic gymnasium.

"It's been a storage area for years," said Harris. "And so, now, we're going to have an air conditioning unit and they have to put it under the gym because of the rafters. They can't put it up there."
