Virtual Victorians

http://www.victorians.org.uk/
This great museum site has lots of interesting material for covering the Victorians topic in history. The day in the life section takes you through a typical week as a Victorian. There's a whole gallery of objects on different themes such as childhood, factory life, Brunel and leisure. You can read a Victorian newspaper, compare photographs of now and then, flick through a factory log book and even play online with Victorian toys and games. Excellent stuff.
